En Cabane dans les Aravis

Mini ski touring trip – 2 days – Staying in a mountain hut in the Aravis

When the mountains fall silent and the horizon is bathed in the colours of evening, there remains a breath, a light, a silence to be shared. We invite you to experience this: a night in a refuge, perched at 2,100 metres in the heart of the Aravis mountains, in the cosy and authentic atmosphere of the Bergerie du Charvin (or the Bergerie du Tardevant). Imagine: you climb the snowy slopes, your touring skis gliding over the snow. Your breath matches the rhythm of the mountain. After this first climb, we drop off our equipment at our shelter: a small 15 m² refuge with a wood stove, gas cooker, solar electricity, 6 cosy beds, dry toilets... minimalist comfort, perfect for getting back to basics. We then set off again towards our first summit of the two days via a beautiful route adapted to your level. Depending on the timing and the weather, the sunset can be admired from the summit... or from the hut.

Mini ski touring trip – 2 days – Staying in a mountain hut in the Aravis

En Cabane dans les Aravis

Day 1:

After relaxing at the Dze La Voye refuge, where we will have had time to get to know each other, check our equipment and pick up the ingredients for our Croziflette dinner (+ Sunday picnics), we will set off on skis (if there is enough snow) to the Bergerie du Charvin (or Tardevant). We will likely stop for a snack at the Bergerie after a relatively easy 600m climb. We will take advantage of this break to drop off our evening and night gear and familiarise ourselves with the area. We will then set off for the first summit of our trip, depending on everyone's fitness level and the snow and weather conditions. We will descend in the late afternoon for a night at the Bergerie.
Elevation gain (varies depending on the programme for the second half of the day)
Positive: between 600 and 1,200 metres
Negative: between 0 and 600 metres

 

Day 2:

We took advantage of the previous evening to make plans for the second day, which will be ‘à la carte’. From the nearby and accessible ‘Col Aulp - Rouelle, 2050m’ to the distant summit ‘Pointe de la Mandallaz, 2277m’, via a series of peaks (Tête de l'Aulp, 2129m -> Rouelle, 2082m -> Goenne, 2174m -> Col des Porthets, 2072m), we will work together and based on the conditions of the moment to create the day of skiing that best meets your expectations.
Once we have had our fill, we will return to the Dze La Voye refuge at the end of the afternoon, then Annecy.
Elevation gain (variable)
Positive: between 200 and 1200m
Négatifs : between 800 et 1600m
