Snowshoeing to the top of the Charvin Express chairlift and back

  • Break at Col d'Arves

Presentation

Reach the summits with the Charvin Express and enjoy breathtaking views along the way.
Option 1 : Upon arrival at the Charvin Express chairlift, turn right to cross the ski slope. Go down the three switchbacks of the piste, leaving a chalet on your left, keep going straight ahead, then turn left to land on a flat area. Cross a first ski slope, then a second, to reach the reservoir. Turn right to go around it or left to climb directly to Crêt du Pralud alongside a ski slope. The route ends at the chalet. The return is through the same route.

Option 2 : Same route but with a return to La Chal walking along the ski piste of the Col d'Arves if conditions allow (3.8 km, 53 m ascent, 414 m descent, 2h05) : From Crêt du Pralud, take the piste to the Col d'Arves, then descend to La Chal following the "Col d'Arves" signs.

Check with the ski lift ticket offices regarding the opening of the connection with the Col d'Arves.
