Want to discover the mountains in a different way? Renting a snowshoe in Le Corbier opens the door to silent strolls through spruce forests and alpine meadows, with the Aiguilles d'Arves and the Maurienne valley in the background. From the snow front, several signposted itineraries allow you to set off directly on foot, ideal for families and those looking for a more sporting outing.

The best time to set off is in the morning: the snow is more stable and the light superb. After a recent fall, wait until the footpaths have been groomed to enjoy light powder. On mild days, opt for the cooler forest trails; on cold, clear days, aim for the lookouts in the middle of the day for a little gentleness. If it's windy, stay below the edge of the trail, and check the weather and snow reports before setting off.
