Snowshoeing does not require any practice or instruction - but they enable you to walk along snow-covered paths without sinking up to your knees, or slipping on frozen snow or ice.
A guided snow-shoe tour
Simon Blackmore writes "A tour from Les Houches to Vaudagne takes us through snow-covered forests and the tiny summer hamlet of Charousse, across its pastures down to the village of Vaudagne where we can visit the donkeys of la Compagnie des Anes, used for trekking and children's rides in summer, or the tiny chapel with its alpine decorations in the interior, before returning to Les Houches."
