Snowshoeing in Chamonix

Snowshoeing allows you to access trails and chalets you can't get to by road, like the Vieilles Luges in Les Houches, an atmospheric mountain restaurant only accessible on foot / skis.

Kit can be hired from an outdoor sports shop and you can either plan your own route or make it simple and book a guided hike, some include lunch / dinner too. Tours can be half day or even a week long, including the Tour du Mont Blanc.
