With committed canyoning, an introduction to mountaineering and a multi-activity offer, the valley is expanding its playground for mountain lovers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Greater immersion in the natural environment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the heart of the valley, a new canyoning trip is being organised in an isolated area, away from the main routes. Supervised by the guides' office, the activity takes place in the Varlossi\u00e8re canyon, at an altitude of over 2,000 metres. The route alternates abseiling, white-water sections and more technical sections, in an environment with few facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>READ MORE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/val-thorens-mountain-activities-highlights-restaurants-hotels-what-to-do-in-summer\/\">Val Thorens: mountain activities, highlights, restaurants, hotels...

An optional overnight stay can be arranged in a restored former alpine hut, with no electricity and limited capacity.
