Want to discover the mountains in a different way? Renting snowshoes in Auris en Oisans opens the door to a luminous landscape of larch forests and sun-drenched belvederes. From this natural balcony overlooking the Oisans, the trails offer superb views of the Écrins peaks, all the way to the majestic Meije, with the calm of winter as a backdrop.

Snowshoeing is accessible to all, and lends itself equally well to families and curious walkers. Mornings are ideal: the snow is firmer, the light pure, and animal tracks easy to spot. After a snowfall, the undergrowth becomes magical. Conversely, sunny exposure can soften the snow in the afternoon; adjust your schedule according to the weather and check the avalanche risk if you plan to leave the marked itineraries.
