The CIS holiday centre is situated in the heart of a mountain region with many footpaths for snowshoe walks. Whether it's in the forest or in the prairies, near to the village or high up in the mountains, a peaceful discovery of the Haute Maurienne is possible with each programme in the company of a mountain guide who is passionate about his job.

Unguided snow shoe holidays :
Each week during the winter the CIS proposes its accommodation in 2/3//4 bedded rooms or in appartments. Individuals or families can do snow shoeing with CIS as their base without a guide.
