Activity description
Let yourself be tempted, this winter, by a snowshoe hike at the edge of the Vanoise National Park, in Savoie, near Val Cenis.
Enjoy the feeling of letting go in the middle of nature, in winter, with your guide Thierry.
The snowshoeing itinerary starts at the Parking du Villaron in Bessans, Savoie, near Val Cenis.
You will first put on your snowshoes and set off for a 3-hour walk. Your guide Thierry will take you to the edge of the Vanoise National Park, in order to fully enjoy the surrounding nature.
You will walk on snowshoes in an authentic and natural environment, with the aim of discovering and observing the local fauna such as chamois, ibexes, eagles and other birds... Thierry will be equipped with a telescope and a pair of binoculars, so you will have the opportunity to borrow them to have a better chance to see these animals.
During the breaks, your guide Thierry will be happy to talk to you about nature, the local fauna and their way of life, hiking, his job, or any other subject that fascinates you.
After discovering snowshoeing and the landscapes that surround you, you will leave your snowshoes and your hiking itinerary in Savoie will end.
