Activity description

Explore the most beautiful routes in the Chamonix-Mont-Blanc valley on snowshoes with a qualified mountain leader!

Benjamin, your mountain leader, invites you to join him for a snowshoe hike starting in Chamonix, to escape the hustle and bustle of the world, in the heart of nature, in search of fulfilment and disconnection.

During this hike, your guide will choose an itinerary adapted to the level of the group but also to the conditions of the moment to allow you to discover this formidable means of locomotion that are snowshoes and especially to allow you to leave the trails and make your own "trace" or to follow those left by chamois, deer, ermines and other tetra-lyres....

Snowshoeing in the Chamonix Valley is a must-do activity in Haute-Savoie. What's more, with the help of a guide who's passionate about wildlife, history and heritage, you'll learn lots of anecdotes while discovering places off the beaten track!

Don't hesitate to discover the Chamonix valley on snowshoes this winter - you'll have a great time out in the great outdoors!

The snowshoeing was amazing, Ben was really friendly and knowledgeable about the area and the wild life. Lorraine and I really loved it, it was proper good fun, the views were incredible and we got to jump, slide and play in the snow and walk back through a very pretty village. Superb, thank you Ben!

The snowshoeing was perfect. Ben picked a route based on our desired activity level and it was just challenging enough but still fun!

La rando était superbe, nous sommes allé presqu'au pied du glacier des Bossons. Ben est un guide expérimenté et nous a expliqué plein de choses hyper intéressantes sur la nature de Chamonix, la formation des glaciers, etc...
