Description

I propose you to leave for two days of winter immersion in Haute-Savoie, far from the classic itineraries!

Near Annecy and Thônes, in the Aravis or Bornes mountains, you will live an unusual and original ski touring experience. Indeed, the night under a tepee will bring another dimension to this adventure. We will also try to find the best snow to make the descents enjoyable.

If you want to live another original night experience, I propose full moon ski touring in the Aravis mountains. But also two days outings with more classic lodging for ski touring in the Chablais, the Aravis or the Belledonne massif.

Program

D1: Ski touring and night in a tepee.
Meeting point in Thônes, half an hour drive from Annecy.
