Activity description

Enjoy a snowshoe hike in Val d'Isère with a professional guide passionate about the activity and the great outdoors!

Nicolas Montmasson, a qualified mountain leader, offers you snowshoe hikes during the day or at nightfall in Val d'Isère and its surroundings.

If it's your first time, go for a 3 hours discovery hike. Your guide will give you some technical tips to move quickly and easily through the varied mountain terrain. You will learn to identify animal tracks while talking about life in the mountains.

After a few climbs, you will have a break for a hot drink and a homemade snack near an alpine chalet. During the descent, we will learn the technique of sliding down the slope with snowshoes.

In good weather conditions and for the more athletic, we will go for a day of snowshoeing to small peaks or remote areas. You will have a picnic in a wild setting that will allow you to breathe and enjoy nature!

Nicolas also proposes a 1h30 night outing... Enter a world where a different atmosphere awaits you! You will be able to observe the life of nocturnal animals while enjoying a hot drink and a home-made snack.

Don't hesitate to come to Val d'Isère for an unforgettable snowshoeing experience!

La randonnée en raquette a été très bien organisée et nous nous sommes sentis en sécurité tout le long. Nicolas savait où il nous emmenait et a agrémenté la randonnée d'anecdotes sur le climat et sur la faune locale.
