Great adventure itinerary tour far away from the marked ski runs.
Using the ski lifts to get up each mountain, your guide then takes you over a ridge to ski the wild undeveloped side, down glaciers and untouched snowfields, through forests and clearings, right down to the valley with its villages. Descents may reach 2000 vertical metres.
You are welcomed with Savoyard hospitality in 3 cosy family-run hotels where your luggage is transferred.
Explore undeveloped mountain sides and descend 1500 to 2000 vertical metres in untracked snow.
Discover the wild regions of the beautiful Tarentaise, which have been preserved by the Vanoise National Park.
Ski off-piste for six days discovering the highest peaks and new valleys with small villages each day.
Drink a glass of wine with the locals and taste their "savoyard" specialities and produce.
The Tarentaise can be traversed without any climbing or ski touring, but...
the most beautiful itineraries are to be found on the backsides of the resorts, which remain undeveloped because they are in the Vanoise National Park.
From the top of a ski lift, we traverse or climb to reach a ridge, which allows us to ski down the other side. If the access is close and visible from the ski lift, then it is often tracked. But as soon as we go a little further away and out of sight, we find secret passages with their virgin slopes.
Skiers who make the effort of climbing with touring skis and skins for at least half an hour will be immediately rewarded by becoming the only beholders of majestic snow covered peaks, in the realm of mountaineers.
If the members of your group are ready for this option, many magnificent summits of the Vanoise Massif may be reached in 1 to 3 hours with skins from the top of the lifts.
After more of 30 years and over 200 Ski Safaris, we still haven't been everywhere and we always find new routes to ski with you... This is why each safari is unique.
Every day, your guide chooses the best itineraries to make the most of each area, depending on prevailing snow and weather conditions and on the ability of the participants.
So come and join us for a great off-piste skiing adventure!
