Micro-Adventure<\/em>: The Best Resort for Ski Touring<\/h2><\/div>\n\n

When looking for the best ski touring resort, several criteria stand out: the quality of the trails, the variety of landscapes, safety, and direct access<\/strong> to the mountains. In Pelvoux-Vallouise<\/a>, all these elements come together as naturally as can be. Nestled in the heart of the Pays des \u00c9crins, the resort offers an ideal setting for ski touring right<\/strong> within the resort itself\u2014amid forests and high mountains\u2014a pristine environment where you can transition from the lifts to wilderness areas without ever losing that sense of freedom that is the very essence of the sport. Let the magic begin! <\/p>\n\n

La Blanche,<\/em> the iconic route<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The ski touring route from La Blanche<\/a><\/strong> alone explains why Pelvoux-Vallouise naturally ranks among the best ski touring resorts.<\/strong>After taking the resort\u2019s two chairlifts (with the ski-touring pass\u2014a real bargain!), we arrive at the summit of the ski area at an elevation of 2,300 meters<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we set off to tackle the mountain on skis, we test our avalanche transceiver* on the testing device provided. Backcountry skiers, just like downhill skiers, are well taken care of! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now it\u2019s time to climb the silent, pristine mountain, heading toward the Croix du Chastellet. Little by little, the resort fades from view. We\u2019re still in Pelvoux-Vallouise, but we\u2019re discovering a different side of it. * Avalanche victim locator<\/sub><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
