Description

I propose two days dedicated to different winter pleasures in the heart of Savoie: the pleasure of ski touring and the pleasure of a comfortable evening in the forest, enjoying the short nights, around the warmth of a fire and a good meal typical of the gastronomy of the Bauges massif!

If you come in a group, the itinerary will be customized to your needs and desires, with positive altitude differences between 300 meters minimum to a maximum of 2500 meters if necessary!

There is no need to carry anything for the evening or the night, other than what is strictly necessary for your well-being and hygiene. The lightness will be appreciated during the ascents and also during the descents!

If you would like to continue your discovery of this beautiful and little-known Bauges mountains, I also suggest other two-day discoveries: the Upper Bauges ski touring traverse and the Arcalod tour. Conditions permitting, you might also opt for a day of powder ski touring, still in the Bauges.

We meet at 9.30am in the village of École en Bauges, about 50 minutes drive from Annecy, Alberville or Chambéry.

Then let us go for ski touring, again and again, until we arrive at the place where we will spend the evening and the night.
