Want to enjoy the peace and quiet of the mountains in winter? Renting a snowshoe in Valberg is the key to gently exploring the larch forests and sun-drenched ridges of the Southern Alps. Here, the light is generous, the panoramas open out onto the Mercantour, and you can progress at your own pace, far from the noise of the slopes.

Snowshoeing is accessible to all, and appeals to families and curious sports enthusiasts alike. Early in the morning, the snow is often colder and firmer, ideal for mapping out easy routes. After a recent fall, the mantle becomes soft and enchanting. At the end of the day, the colors on the summits are ablaze, but remember to plan ahead for the night.
