Looking for a breath of fresh air in the heart of the Massif des Bauges Regional Nature Park? Renting a snowshoe at Savoie Grand Revard is the ideal opportunity to discover a luminous plateau, fir forests and ridges offering splendid panoramic views over Lac du Bourget and, on a clear day, as far as Mont Blanc. Marked itineraries wind between La Féclaz, Le Revard and Saint-François-de-Sales, with loops suitable for families as well as more sporty hikers.

The most pleasant period is from December to March, when snow cover is regular. The mornings are often cold and stable, guaranteeing more buoyant snow. After a snowfall, the forest becomes magical. On windy days, opt for undergrowth itineraries; when fog covers the valley, it's not uncommon to walk above a sea of clouds.

For a successful outing, think about thermal layers, waterproof hiking boots and, if possible, gaiters. Bring water, snacks, sunglasses and sunscreen: the albedo of the snow is surprisingly high. Follow the marked trails, keep an eye on the time in winter, and check the weather and trail conditions before you set off. Departure from the La Féclaz or Le Revard parking lots is easy and well signposted.

Accessible, exotic and friendly, snowshoe hire at Savoie Grand Revard opens the door to a unique Nordic playground. Whether you're looking for a gentle stroll or a breathtaking lookout point, you'll find everything you need to pace your stay in complete safety.
