Tarentaise Valley, French Alps, Guided Ski Touring

The Tarentaise valley in the French Alps offers some remarkable skiing. The slopes are great, and present some amazing descents, especially near the areas of Val d’Isere and Tignes.

On this full day trip, which can be extended to more days if you wish, I will take you to some of the best skiing areas in the entire Tarentaise valley. This will be a Freerando trip, which is a hybrid between off-piste skiing and ski touring. It is not quite off-piste skiing because we will be venturing further away from the resort areas than typical off-piste skiing trips. I like to do this so we can get away from the crowds and explore the more isolated spots. However, unlike most ski touring trips, we will be using the available ski lifts at times so we can avoid having to skin high up in the mountains. Thus allowing you to save time and energy that can be put toward some great skiing!

There is a wonderful variety of places to ski in the Tarentaise valley. They include Les Arcs, La Plagne, Sainte Foy, La Rosiere, La Thuile, Les 3 Vallees, and many more. With an assortment like that, you can rest assured that I will help you find the perfect spot. The variety also insures that there are powdered slopes for skiers of every level, from expert to intermediate.

When it comes to the descents, there is also a wide variety. They include the Col des Montets, the Col de la Galise, the Croix du Pisset, the Col de la Grassaz, and many more.

The Tarentaise valley is a fantastic place for skiing. And if you would like to experience it for yourself, all you have to do is send me a request.
