Description

In the heart of the Savoie department, I invite you to come and discover the snowy mountain pastures of Les Saisies by snowshoeing. Durinf this afternoon of hiking, I take you on a magnificent itinerary in the middle of the chalets, where Man and Nature have managed to find a harmonious balance. Enchanting snow-covered landscapes await you, in complete tranquility.

This walk in the preserved nature of the Beaufortain massif is accessible to everyone.

The strong points:

  • A preserved environment away from the winter crowds.
  • The Mont Blanc as a backdrop.
  • A restful environment!

Throughout the winter, I also offer nighttime snowshoeing and morning snowshoe hikes in Les Saisies. You can even treat yourself to a unique snowshoeing and igloo evening, still in Les Saisies.
