Full description
Savour theadrenaline rush of freeriding with one of the most famous itineraries in the Alps. The Vallée Blanche, in the heart of the Mont Blanc massif, awaits you for a day of sport and fun!
Together with an Alpine Guide, you will ascend by cable car to Punta Helbronner, at an altitude of over 3,000 m, and then descend to Chamonix in a formidable 22 km off-piste descent!
What are you waiting for to set off on this adventure? If you love snow and are looking for strong emotions, you absolutely have to join us!
What we will do
We will meet the Alpine Guide at 8:00 am at the car park of the Skyaway cable car in Courmayeur (AO). First there will be an equipment check and a briefing on the rules of behaviour and safety. Then we will ascend by ski lift to Punta Helbronner, at an altitude of 3,300 metres.
Before embarking on the descent, we will pause to admire the fantastic panorama of Mont Blanc and most of the Western Alps...a view to behold! After that, we will begin the real freeride route that will take us straight to Chamonix, on French soil.
The route runs on Alpine slopes for a good 22 km. At about the halfway point, we will stop for a picnic meal and then set off again with maximum energy!
Upon arrival in Chamonix, we will enjoy some relaxation by visiting the town centre and perhaps toasting our health after this beautiful adventure!
The return to Courmayeur is scheduled for around 16:30 and will take place by bus or private taxi.
