6-day snowshoeing tour around the Hautes Alpes

I invite you to join me on a great 6-day snowshoeing tour (7 nights) around the beautiful Hautes Alpes. Every morning, we will set out to discover new landscapes and massifs, enjoying incredible views.

From the central location of Gap, the most important town in the Gapençais region, we are able to snowshoe from valley to valley, walking across beautiful larch forests. We will also visit dairies, with the opportunity to taste the delicious regional cheese variety!

The Southern Alps lie right where Mediterranean and Alpine cultures get together, giving this region a very special character.

During these 6-day tour we will go snowshoewalking on the border between Dévoluy and Champsaur, on the heights of the Gapençais. We will also get the chance to visit the Serre-Ponçon Lake, the largest reservoir of water in Europe. Not to mention the spectacular view from a cliff over Gap and Sisteron, facing the majestic Bure peak.

You can check the day-by-day itinerary at the bottom of this page. We will walk an average of 4 to 6 hours a day on quite easy trails, with an average altitude gain of 400 to 900 meters. All you need to take is a small backpack with your lunch picnic for the day walk.

Besides, you have the option of preparing your own meals, or to hire the full package with meals included. In this case, get ready to enjoy generous and varied cuisine in our cottage! Also, every day, you can prepare your own picnic lunch according to your wishes.

If you wish to have more privacy, it is also posible to stay in a completely independent accommodation, with an extra charge. It would be just 5 minutes away from my cottage.

So join me on this fantastic guided snowshoeing week! Send me a request and we will start planning this unique tour in the Hautes Alpes. You should also take a look at my Embrun 1-day guided snowshoeing tour!
