Facing Lake Geneva and the crests of the Chablais Alps, Thollon Les Memises is the perfect playground for walking in the snow. Renting a snowshoe in Thollon Les Memises lets you explore panoramic balconies, fir forests and silent mountain pastures at your own pace. Solo, as a couple or with the family, it's the ideal activity for enjoying the fresh air, taking photo breaks and marvelling at the view over the lake.

The weather conditions the experience. Cold, clear mornings offer clear horizons and plenty of snow, while late afternoons set Lake Geneva ablaze as the sun sets. From December to March, snow cover is generally good between villages and plateaus; when the weather warms up, opt for shady routes. The breezes can be brisk on the crests, so layer up and pack a hat, gloves and goggles. After a snowfall, the magic happens, but stay on the marked trails.
