Ski touring trek into Maurienne
A not very committed glacial trek with accessible difficulties.
The ski touring trek into Maurienne is a real wild route with a good welcome of the wardens of refuges. A particularly snow-covered beautiful area of Savoie. That wild route is less visited than the big classic ones.
2021 Dates
From mid-March to May depending on the snow conditions.
