Ski touring in Reallon, Hautes-Alpes

Peer out across Lake Serre Poncon and the breathtaking scenery of the Hautes-Alpes while ski touring through Reallon! This guided day program at the edge of the Ecrins National Park gives you access to incredible terrain in an idyllic setting, a charming and less crowded destination in the Alps with top quality skiing and endless fun!

Reallon and its ski resort are part of the identity of the Hautes-Alpes above Lake Serre Poncon. The southeastern location is a prime spot in the Alps, which takes pride in the natural mystique and beauty of its mountain landscape. The five villages that are included in the region contribute to the region’s appeal, making its ski resort both evocative and exhilarating.

Your program welcomes you to this perfect setting, immersing you in the stunning wilderness at the foot of Aiguilles de Chabrieres. The altitude ranges from 1,560 meters to 2,146 meters, with an eclectic mix of terrain for you to enjoy. The resort is the same that produced world champion ski mountaineer Laetitia Roux, so touring in her footsteps is a compelling feat for any winter athlete.

There are seven lifts covering the piste runs, which help access the out-of-bounds areas, some of which are marked. The elevation is high enough to reliably provide great snow cover, in turn leading to a number of lines with untouched snow.

While taking on vertical drops and tree-lined runs, you will look out across an amazing setting. Reallon has some routes marked out from the station, which allows off-piste beginners relatively seamless access to skinning up to moderate lines. For more advanced powder hounds, there is ample backcountry to peruse and challenge ourselves on, too. Ecrins-adjacent and looking out across Serre Poncon, it’s difficult to imagine a more beautiful and enchanting place to enjoy a ski touring adventure.

You should be in good shape both physically and have the mental fortitude to last a full day in the backcountry. The access to the piste and accommodating culture of the Reallon community make this a fulfilling program, and I will ensure we have a safe and fun day exploring the slopes.
