Snowshoe trek
Escape in a small group and get some fresh air with snowshoes, through snow-covered mountain pastures and forests.
The aim is to discover unspoilt areas for maximum enjoyment in safe conditions. There’s no shortage of wilderness around Les 2 Alpes, and we’ll be able to observe the animal world (chamois, stoats, eagles, lammergeiers, etc.) on an outing labeled Esprit Parc National des Écrins.
Our hikes are also an opportunity to discover the history and heritage of our beautiful Oisans region. The diversity of our itineraries will enable you to hike through mountain pastures, forests or forgotten hamlets without missing out on the many exceptional viewpoints over the Oisans.
From discovery to regular practice, we’ll guide you at your own pace.
From December to April.
Registration directly at our reception desk or via our contact form.
