This three-day snowshoe trek will give you a taste of winter hiking on your own, carrying all your gear in your pack from hut to hut. Along the way, you'll be treated to sumptuous winter panoramas and a complete break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It's the perfect weekend for those looking for a winter adventure with the comfort of a refuge to sleep in and recharge their batteries.
This wilderness snowshoeing adventure will help you get to grips with equipment and the weight of a pack on a self-sufficient hike. Thanks to our guide, you'll enjoy a safe, supervised experience that will equip you to feel more confident and autonomous for future outings of this style.
The pace is generally slower and the physical effort more demanding on a long winter hike. A real adventure, you have to be prepared to walk long days on the Philosore trail. But believe us, it's a magnificent trail, well worth the effort in winter!
Snowshoes are mandatory and if you have crampons, we suggest you bring them too.
You'll find the full list of equipment required in the "To Know" tab.
Accommodation is in a dormitory in a refuge (without service), reserved for our group.
