From June to Mid October the Alps come
alive and change through the seasons. As the snow clears, the meadows fill with
an abundance of wild flowers and the cattle and sheep move higher to their
summer pastures, a network of paths are revealed to lead you to the far reaching
ends of the valleys and days of memorable adventure. As the summer moves on the
colours continue. From the vivid greens of spring, pastures darken the leaves
turn fiery oranges and reds providing a spectacular farewell to the summer
before winter arrives.
Come and walk in the Tarentaise and
Aoste valleys. We have lived in the Tarentaise valley since 2001 and are passionate about
the area. We will reveal some of our favourite spots in the area to you (although you
will need more than a week to see them all).
We can advise on the routes so that they
are suited to your groups' level making sure that you are never overstretched and
have time to enjoy your surroundings.

If you would prefer to be guided on your
walks we can organise a qualified guide for you.
Why not spend the night in a high
mountain refuge?
You don't have to hike for hours to
experience a night in a mountain refuge. Spend the day walking up in the high
mountains before reaching the refuge. Here you can make yourself at home and
relax. Unwind and soak up the atmosphere, spot animals with binoculars, play
cards or just watch the sun set. So you don't have to worry about cooking
you can purchase a simple, wholesome evening meal in the refuge.
The following morning either push on a
little further or take a leisurely walk back down to the valley and your return
trip to the chalet for your next adventure.
