Full description

Walk through the woods in the enchanted landscape of theAlta Val di Susa. This 3-hour snowshoe hi ke is a unique opportunity to breathe in all the magic of the mountains!

Set off from Campo Smith, in Bardonecchia, and follow an easy itinerary suitable for everyone in the company of an Alpine guide and/or environmental hiking guide. If you wish, at the end of the snowshoe hi ke you can enjoy an aperitif in a refuge, to savour the typical products of this area.

What we will do

The meeting point is at 3.30 p .m. in the Campo Smith area in Bardonecchia. Here we will put on our snowshoes (included) and meet the mountain guide and/or environmental hiking guide who will accompany us on the walk.

After attaching the snowshoes to our boots, we will be ready to start our hike. The guide will choose the most suitable route in the basin of Bardonecchia, in Alta Val di Susa, to allow us to walk on fresh snow.

We will walk between 2 and 5 km with snowshoes on our feet, with a maximum altitude difference of 150/200 m, through high forests of larch, coniferous, spruce and pine trees. We will stop to observe animal tracks in the snow, learning to recognise the inhabitants of the mountain. The silence of nature will envelop us completely, broken only by the treading of snowshoes on the snow.

At the end of the snowshoe hike, we will stop for anaperitif in one of the area's refuges (optional and not included in the fee), to recharge our batteries while we enjoy typical local products . After the aperitif we will switch on our headlamps and return to Campo Smith in the early evening light with our snowshoes.

The total duration of the activity will be about 3 hours.
