Snowshoe Intro
Let us introduce you to……
Snowshoeing for the first time: “Whatever your aspirations and level of experience, we work with you to offer a truly fabulous day out in the mountains.”
- Fitness – we explore easy gradients on the hike and allow plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the winter wonderland.
- Equipment – we supply and make sure snowshoes are correctly fitted along with poles
- Too many skiers around – the whole aim of snowshoeing is to get away from the crazy busy pistes and enjoy a tranquil experience
- Chairlifts – sometimes we use chairlifts to access the higher mountains, however if you are not keen on such transport let us know and we can present some great options.
Our trips run from Châtel, Chapelle du Abondance and Abondance, located in the Abondance Valley, Port du Soleil. Also Lac Vallon, Roc du Enfer and Hirmentaz in Vallee Brevon, Vallee Verte and Samoen. In Châtel we are so close to the Swiss border you will often find yourself hiking between countries.
Want something different, maybe to include a refuge lunch stop, or an evening snowshoe with fondue? Drop us an email at info@livebreathehike.co.uk or call us on +33 (0)6 73 77 05 16
