Off-piste skiing

The plentiful supply of off-piste descents in the area is the main reason why we established the chalet here. From the easily accessible opportunities such as the Tour de Charvet or the Grand Vallon in Val D’Isere to the little known Fogglieta in Ste Foy the available terrain is, in our view, unsurpassed. There is everything from powder preserving north faces to delightful south facing routes best skied in spring snow. The descents here have up to 2000 metres of vertical descent, starting in open fields of untouched snow, to beautiful trees, often ending in ancient stone villages inhabited only in summer.

Off-piste skiing however holds inherent dangers so we work with local guides Franck Grand and Severin Marchand. Both trained in Chamonix, they have a real passion for the mountains which comes through on every descent. They give a feeling of security and know the mountains inside out. Even when conditions are variable they know how to find the best snow and help make the best of the groups abilities.
