Guided Snowshoe Walking Holidays in the French Alps

Come and join me on a guided snowshoe walking holiday in the French Alps. I personally guide the trips, so you are assured of personal attention.

I offer a range of snowshoe holidays in the Northern French Alps. Trips are typically week long or take place over a long weekend for those with less time to spare.

I offer guided snowshoe walks in the Three Valleys ski resorts of Courchevel, Meribel, La Tania and St Martin de Belleville. My guided snowshoe walking is available throughout the ski season from mid-December to the end of April. It is a wonderful non-skiing activity.

Find out more about snowshoe walking in my article “Why go snowshoeing“.
