Enjoy the view of the most astonishing landscapes on this 4-day snowshoeing trip across three different countries in the Chamonix area.
Chamonix is a French commune located in the Haute-Savoie department. Inside this beautiful area, you can find the north face of the highest point in the Alps: the Mont Blanc (4,810 meters). This great peak is part of the Mont Blanc massif, where our trip takes place.
If you decide to join me on this trip, you will have the chance to enjoy snowshoeing across four beautiful spots. On day 1, we’ll hike up to the Chalets de Loriaz in Vallorcine, France. On day 2, we’ll cross into Val Ferret and climb to Bonatti hut, in Italy. The following day, we’ll drive to La Romme and start our ascent to the Tête de la Sallaz summit. Finally, we’ll enjoy our last day with an ascent to the Mont de L’Arpille in Switzerland.
The amazing panoramas that you will see during the trip will include Mont Blanc, the Chablais, the Jura, and the Aravis.
So are you ready to join me? Request to book this trip and I’ll be happy to show you around this beautiful area in the Alps.

It has been a magnificent 10 days journey with Lindsay Canon as an extraordinary guide. Her expertise, encouragement, humour and leadership have made this hike an unforgettable adventure. Overall the organisation of the hike with regard to sleeping facilities, food and communication was top notch.

Emma was a very sweet and knowledgeable guide. She was adaptive to the different personalities and skill level of our group. Easygoing, talkative, friendly and pleasant to be around! Couldn't be happier with our guide!

We were Very pleased With Emma guiding us through the hikes. We really enjoyed the entire trip:) As we were just our family we would have loved a little more flexibility hiking in our own pace - felt we were rushed a bit too much. We should have informed Emma about this but we were too compliant:) The explore-share platform was a bit rigid/ formel - it was not clear that exploreshare hired another firm to do the job. Also quite a High fee to explore share We were first told to have an (expensive) extended travel insurance (with mountain rescue) up to departure / after we had plaid. We should have been told this before signing up. Another mistake were that explore share had told us last payment were due closer to departure - so in a rush we had to pay up 60 days before as this is cloud9advenures policy. This made us uncertain if it was fraud. But it wasn’t:) overall pleased with our trip
