FROM AGE 12
A moment suspended in time awaits you!
Nestled in the heart of the Vanoise National Park, this introduction to mountaineering, set at altitudes between 3,000 and 3,500 meters, is accessible to all, requiring only a minimal altitude gain.
Embark on a glacier hike that promises new sensations and the chance to learn the fundamentals of mountaineering in ideal conditions. Our passionate guides are eager to share their love for the mountains, guiding you through a breathtaking landscape filled with seracs and crevasses in an area as magical as it is unique.
The goal is simple: to take in the magnificent views while discovering an activity that often feels out of reach for most people!
HOW IT WORKS :
- The day before your trek, we’ll meet you at the Bureau des Guides in Tignes to try on your equipment (boots, crampons, harness, and helmet).
- On the day of the activity, you'll meet your guide at the Perce-Neige funicular in Tignes Val Claret (exact timings will be sent a few days before your outing, as lift schedules may vary during summer).
- As you ascend, you’ll get fitted for your gear. After roping up with your guide, you’ll make your way to the glacier for an unforgettable mountaineering experience!
- At the end of your adventure, around 12:30-13:00, return to the funicular departure point and treat yourself to a well-deserved break at Le Panoramique Restaurant, where you can relax on the terrace with stunning views of the highest peaks in the French and Italian Alps!

They experienced this adventure...
A must-try activity!
Usually not very comfortable in the water, the guides reassured me as soon as I arrived, and put me at ease in just a few minutes! My children were amazed and proud of me! Incredible sensations and landscapes that I won't soon forget!
