Snowshoeing Grand Massif Giffre Mountains
Chalet Setanta is ideally located for winter walking and snowshoeing with over 30 waymarked routes in three close by areas. All routes are graded, many require snowshoes (raquettes), and the routes can be self-guided or a guide can be arranged. We can organise snowshoe hire and will drop and collect you from your walk each day. The chalet is offered as a catered service with all meals, wine and drinks included, alternatively the chalet is available as self-catered for up to 8 people.
