Dreaming of space and freedom
Skiing with sealskin is the ideal way to discover the unspoilt beauty of the mountains in winter.
Take the plunge and learn or perfect your ski touring technique with your guide.
The Vallée du Giffre and the surrounding Massifs abound in treasures for this flagship activity combining the pleasures of hiking and skiing.
The feeling of freedom and making your own tracks will make you love this activity, whether for a half-day, a full day or even several days with a night in a refuge.
Ski touring is surely the best way to explore the snow-covered mountains!
