Description

Cross country skiing is a more gentle way to discover nature in the mountains. The site in the valley, on the banks of the Giffre, offers 43 km of tracks that are also suitable for skating. The Haut Giffre circuits are very popular with cross country skiers. Blending perfectly into the landscape, the tracks «Lac bleu» (0,5km), «Lacs aux Dames» (1,5km), «Bois de l’Etelley» (4km), «la Glière» (2,5km) and «le Molliet» (2,7km) are suitable for beginners, while the Fer-à-Cheval (10 km), and the return to Samoens (2.5km and 3.5km) will appeal to more experienced skiers.
