Ski touring and nights at Presset mountain hut - instructor/guide
Evolve in the area of a famous ski touring competition, hike and ski very close to the rocky peak of Pierra Menta, spend a night at Presset mountain hut at 2514 m altitude : this is what we offer you with an instructor/guide to supervise you. 2 days or more in the mountains and an evening at altitude in the very heart of Beaufortain to discover, on skis, the snowy valleys of this Savoyard massif.
Ski touring with a night at Presset mountain hut
Day 1
Access from the Tarentaise valley > Meet at the car park at the place called "Les Pars" above the village of Aime.
Day 2
The next morning, once breakfast has been taken and the homemade Saint-Genix has been devoured, a myriad of options and itineraries present themselves to us. Very close to the refuge: the Bresson pass (2469 m), the Grand Fond pass (2671 m), the Brèche de Parozan (2663 m), the la Nova pass (2811 m)... switch to the combes and ski routes of the Beaufortain massif.
Ski touring with 2 nights at Presset hut
Day 3
The promiscuity of the various passes and "passeur" allows us to hike from the refuge by traversing a new route every day.
Ski touring with 3 nights at Presset hut
Day 4
Program to be defined depending to the physical shape of the participants, the weather and snow conditions.
Presset hut
Camped on a small hill at an altitude of 2514 m, facing the Pierra Menta summit, bordered by a frozen lake in winter, and surrounded by a rocky cirque, the Presset hut is a place of choice for ski touring and contemplating the summits. In addition, few refuges are guarded in winter, knowing that a heated place with half board awaits us at nightfall is a privilege that we would be wrong to do without. We know well Charlotte and Jean-Philippe, hut keepers of this refuge. If access to their lair requires some physical effort on the way up, the most difficult is invariably coming down, as the reception, the food, and the decor invite us to extend our stay.
