My goal

Do you feel the call of the snow but don’t know how to ski? This is the perfect excursion for you. If you’ve been told that a snowshoe excursion in Alagna isn’t for everyone, don’t believe it.

We will take you to the magical Val d’Otro, where you’ll walk through enchanted woods, following a trail that leads you to the edge of the old ski slope “Camoscetta.” We’ll continue to an altitude of 1600 meters, exploring the ancient hamlets of Otro. You’ll be guided through the picturesque villages of Follu, Weng, Dorf, and Feglierech, until we reach Alpe Pian Misura.

A Snowshoe Excursion in Alagna offers an authentic and immersive experience, surrounded by the beauty of the snowy landscape!

Train with us and feel better right away: walking with snowshoes is good for both body and mind! If you’re looking for a snowshoeing experience with lunch at a refuge, take a look here!

Are snowshoeing activities too strenuous and require training? False.

While walking on fresh snow with snowshoes does require more effort than strolling in the park or city, no special athletic preparation is needed. It’s an activity suitable for everyone, including children. In addition to toning leg muscles, walking on snow for 30 minutes is an aerobic exercise that trains the heart and lungs. It’s a great alternative for those who want to be active and get back in shape but don’t enjoy skiing or aren’t used to the slopes.

FAQ #1 – In case of bad weather, can I reschedule my trip?
Yes, trips can be rescheduled in case of bad weather.
FAQ #2 – What shoes should I wear with snowshoes?
It is advisable to wear high-top, waterproof, and sufficiently stiff boots with snowshoes.
FAQ #3 – Can the proposed experiences be modified?
Certainly! The experiences we offer depend on snow conditions and the weather. The guide assigned to you will suggest similar but alternative routes if the booked excursion is not suitable for the chosen date.
