Lovers of leisurely walks will love the easy family trails, ideal for getting to grips with the joys of snow, such as the Glaise loop at La Féclaz or the hamlets of the Lindar valley at Aillon-le-Jeune.
Itineraries to suit all tastes
At Chambéry Montagnes, everyone finds their own pace.
The more inquisitive can follow the signposted paths along the Margériaz or Orionde ridges at Savoie Grand Revard, to reach magnificent viewpoints.
And for those who like to work up a sweat, the more athletic routes such as the Piste du Trappeur de Saint François de Sales offer real challenges, with grandiose panoramic views of Mont Blanc and the Bauges.
In short, whether you’re a contemplative walker or an intrepid hiker, the winter paths are waiting to be explored.
Mountain guides, mountain guides
Walking in the snow is great. Walking with a guide is even better! Our passionate guides know the mountains like the back of their hand: they guide you in complete safety, tell you the secrets of the flora and fauna, and always slip in a tasty anecdote about life here. With them, the walk becomes a human experience: we talk, we laugh, we learn. And sometimes it’s just a silent wonderment.
