Description

Treat yourself to a day of ski touring in the Aravis massif in Haute-Savoie. Conditions permitting, this outing will be an opportunity to climb and ski one of its beautiful peaks: La Tournette, Mont Charvin, Le Lachat, L'Étale, Blonnière, etc.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Discover the Aravis massif with a specialist of this region!
  • Improve your technique and your knowledge of ski touring, thanks to the Caruso method, a unique approach to optimize movement and increase your safety on snow.
  • Share an unforgettable day!
  • Enjoy powder or spring snow skiing.

Ski touring is freedom! It allows to go where it is still possible to make a track, where is the silence, where we still observe chamois and ibex present in the Aravis massif. The ski touring climb is a time of effort but not only: a time of contemplation, a time to enter the privileged environment offered by the Aravis mountains, time to feel invited, then embark on the downhill! The long awaited and dreamed one that will be revealed each time unique, unforgettable and exceptional!

Set up your group (between 2 and 6 people) and contact me to create your idyllic day out!

Throughout the winter, you can follow me on other ski touring outings on Mont Charvin or in the Bornes, Bauges and Aravis massifs. You can also extend the pleasure with these 3 days of ski touring and yoga in the Aravis.
