Catch the first slopes of the day
Your route will take you far away from the main slopes on a journey that combines freeride and hiking.
This tour is ideal for the adventurous winter sport enthusiast.
From the remains of the old Roman camp at the col de Cluy, you then climb the Grandes Buffes!
The effort is well worth it as the view is simply magical. You will then go around the Herpie, the Meije and even the Massif of Belledonne. The most courageous amongst you will push your limits by going as far as the Cassini Cross. Then, with your skis touching powder and under the beautiful sky, you will ski down the slopes to the gorges of Sarenne.
