In Region Dents du Midi, the joys of winter come in a multitude of experiences and the ski slopes are just the beginning. 150 km of snowshoe trails explore silent winter landscapes far from the madding crowds, and then there’s cross-country skiing, ski touring, invigorating winter hikes, ice climbing, curling and more…

Snowshoes hiking & Winter walks

The alpine landscape is especially dramatic in winter and there’s nothing better than a stroll in the chilly outdoors to whisk away the post-holiday doldrums. Kick off your slippers and step into a wonderland of icy peaks, frozen streams and welcoming mountain huts.

Ski touring

Earn your turns! Ski touring is a demanding sport but the rewards: endless, wide-open spaces and untouched powder, are well worth the effort. Equipped with synthetic ā€˜skins’ that stick to the bottom of your skis, you’re free to explore up-hill and down, as far as you can ski.

Cross Country Skiing

In winter, the Val d’Illiez is transformed into a frozen fairyland. Blanketed in pristine powder, alpine pastures dazzle with a million glittering crystals while dark forests slumber under weighty pillows of snow. ChampĆ©ry and Morgins’ cross country ski trails allow you to enjoy this wintertime landscape at its best.

Ice Sports

As you might have already guessed, winter sports are a very big deal around here. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that we have a whole category of sports and activities dedicated to ice!
