Snow Shoe Trails
Serre Chevalier has several routes starting in the valley as well as four mountain circuits (walker’s lift pass required) designed to help you explore these splendid areas, surrounded by mighty peaks. A real breath of fresh air!
A guide to these snow-shoe walks is available at the Serre Chevalier tourist office.
No training is required, you just have to know how to walk! Several routes take you past or into the magnificent Ecrins National Park and there are also walks that guide you through the heart of the ski resort. Snow-shoe walks in the company of a mountain professional are designed to help you discover life in the mountains in winter:
the winter fauna (chamois, ibex etc), the forests, the high-valley environments, and the different kinds of snow and its dangers (avalanches etc). Or maybe you’re simply after long, peaceful walks through untracked snow, far from the crowds, savouring the silence of the mountains.
