Description

A unique snowshoeing and night in a mountain chalet in the Bargy Massif, in Haute Savoie.

This beautiful snowshoeing trip is for friends and families who want to live an incredible experience for two days in the mountain, in a wild area, off the beaten paths.

We will spend the night there, in a special cottage thanks to its warmth and location. Inaccessible by car in the middle of a wild and beautiful area, the cottage has 15 beds spread over 4 private bedrooms with bathrooms in the first floor and a dormitory with 3 single beds in an alcove on the second floor.

We can enjoy all the necessary equipment to our comfort: lounge area with fireplace, Wi-Fi, flat screen TV, kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, hob, washing machine. The logs are provided!

The alpine chalet is located at 1485 m above sea level, opposite to Bargy and very close to the Cenise plateau.

Here is the program I propose. It can be modified depending on the group and its desires.

Day 1

11h: Meeting at your home or in Mont Saxonnex, transfer by car to the point of the hiking.

12h: Picnic or lunch at the departure place for snowshoeing. Baggage storage and provisions for the cottage.

13h: Snowshoeing in Bargy in the afternoon, and research workshop of avalanche victims (about 4h).

17h: Arrival at the cottage, cocktails and festive evening

Day 2

Bed and breakfast at the cottage. Snowshoeing descent in the late morning (about 20 minutes).

We have to plan the food for dinner (fondue?) and beverages.

I invite you to contact me if you are interested in living an incredible experience in the mountain with friends or family. It’s a really beautiful adventure that I recommended to everybody.

What people are saying about -Caroline

J'ai eu l'opportunité de participer à deux stages, l'un dans le Cantal, l'autre à Chamonix. Un grand plaisir de partager une passion commune avec des participants très sympas de tous niveaux et de tous horizons. Caroline, une grande professionnelle de la montagne et du trail, n'a pas son pareil pour organiser ces rencontres, et tout cela dans une super ambiance et des paysages à couper le souffle.

J'ai fait deux stages avec Caro, c'est devenu une amie, et chacun de ces stages m'a laissé des souvenirs inoubliables. Le premier stage en 2014 en Haute Savoie à l'occasion du Trail du Gypaète. Le Deuxième stage en 2015, dans les Calanques de Marseille. Ces stages auront été parfaits à tous les niveaux: Paysages grandioses (on sent qu'ils ont été choisis avec soin), des échanges techniques avec des "pros" (un grand moment quand Caro inspecte les sacs à dos...), pleins de conseils nutrition - mode de vie etc... La découverte des autres stagiaires mais aussi des autres encadrants (très bon contact avec Guillaume Lenormand par ex.). Des conditions matérielles top (hébergement, repas, organisation etc...). Seule critique: le temps passe trop vite, c'est toujours trop court! Donc au final quand c'est fini, on n'a qu'une envie... c'est de repartir pour un autre stage! Et vu le nombre de personnes que l'on croise sur les stages qui en sont à leur n-ième participation, je peux affirmer que ce sentiment est partagé!

Pour moi le trail c'est avant tout la découverte de nouveaux territoires, les rencontres et les échanges avec d'autres passionnés, le respect de la nature. Mes 3 stages avec Caroline m'ont permis de retrouver ces fondamentaux dans un cadre toujours bon enfant, mais pas moins professionnel. Caroline est une passionnée de montagne et de tout ce qui y touche (sport, culture, gastronomie) et elle sait comme personne transmettre sa passion et ses bons conseils, toujours avec le sourire. Je garde un excellent souvenir des rencontres avec les autres stagiaires et mais aussi avec les autres encadrants, Guillaume, Seb, Cédric, Lydie et tant d'autres rencontrés au cours de ces stages.

Great experience, but definitely favored toward elite runners. One of our guides, JC, was amazing. He cared about every runner. The other guide seemed only to care for the elites (and himself). On top of Col des Montets, I asked if we had time to put on warm layers. The guide said "of course," but then quickly proceeded to run off with the entire group while I stood bare and freezing with my gear unpacked. Total lack of consideration for the well-being of his runners. Otherwise a great tour.
