Think again. The mountains are just as stunning in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/fr\/summer2018\/\">summer<\/a> as they are in winter. Lush greenery, beautiful lakes at the base of mountains and tons of activities to keep you busy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">One of our favourite ways to enjoy the Alps in summer is hiking. If you\u2019re thinking of heading to the French Alps this summer, you\u2019ll definitely want to spend some time exploring the trails.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Why go hiking in the French Alps?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"s1\">A place that feels very familiar when it\u2019s covered in snow can look totally different once it&#8217;s melted. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">Getting out into the fresh air and enjoying the stunning scenery of the Alps in the summer is best done on a hike. Plus you might find some wild strawberries or raspberries, spot a marmot or other wildlife, or stumble across some unique plants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>And what&#8217;s great about hiking in the French Alps is you can find the perfect trail suited to your ability. So if you&#8217;re after a leisurely stroll around the lake or a heart-pumping uphill challenge, there&#8217;s something for everyone.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Best Day Hikes in La Tania<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Here are our favourite hikes in and around La Tania.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Le Bouc Blanc<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">1 &#8211; 1.5hrs to the top<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Moderate<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Hike straight up from La Tania to the top of the gondola. This starts on a trail behind the Ski Lodge and winds through the forest alongside the Folyeres piste. If you head up the right time of summer you&#8217;ll find wild raspberries growing along the path. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The end is a bit steep, but you pop out at the top of the piste and can head to Le Bouc Blanc for a beverage or some food (yep, they&#8217;re open in the summer too). The best part about this one? You can take the gondola down afterwards!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Teppes Trail<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">1hr<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Easy<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This hike starts in the same spot that the Bouc Blanc hike did, but instead of heading left, you\u2019ll head right and wrap around towards M\u00e9ribel. This is a nice shaded walk through the forest. You&#8217;ll find a nice picnic spot with a view, and you&#8217;ll get to M\u00e9ribel by a new means of transportation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-50091\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer.jpg\" alt=\"hiking french alps le bouc blanc summer la tania\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer-1030x686.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer-705x470.jpg 705w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Le-Bouc-Blanc-Summer-610x407.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Lac de Tueda<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">30min around the lake<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Easy<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This stunning lake in M\u00e9ribel Mottaret is not one to be missed. A stroll around Lac de Tueda is more of a walk than a hike, on flat, easy terrain and loops around the lake. And just a 10min walk from the parking, it&#8217;s easy to access.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">You can continue up past the lake and take the trail further onto steeper terrain. You\u2019ll hike past gorges and you can go deep into the valley. This is where you might even spot some marmots.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Dent du Villard<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">2.5 &#8211; 3hrs to the top<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Moderately Strenuous<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This hike starts from Lac La Rosi\u00e8re in Courchevel 1650. This is definitely a more challenging hike and is quite steep during parts, however, once you get to the top it\u2019s absolutely worth it. You\u2019ll have 360 views of the entire area, and there\u2019s also stunning landscape at the top. Tons of beautiful flowers and greenery, along with unique rock and holes in the mountain. You might even find a small pile of snow still hanging on for dear life!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">We recommend going on a cooler day because there is little coverage on the hike up &#8211; you\u2019ll be in the sun. There are two different routes up, so you can take a different way down than you came up. Bring a baguette sandwich to eat at the top, or have a barbecue down by the lake afterwards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-50092\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps.jpg\" alt=\"Hiking French Alps river flowers mountain views\" width=\"1782\" height=\"1188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps.jpg 1782w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps-1030x687.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps-705x470.jpg 705w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.ski-dazzle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hiking-French-Alps-610x407.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1782px) 100vw, 1782px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Spend an evening in a Refuge<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Want to head out on a bigger hiking adventure? One of the coolest perks of hiking in the French Alps are the mountain refuges. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.courchevel.com\/en\/mountain-refuges-summer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Courchevel has a few different refuges tucked throughout the mountain.<\/a> Some are manned where they provide board for you, and others are un-manned and you\u2019ll need to bring all your food and drink in with you. This is definitely an experience to try at least once!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">&#8211;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">If spending some sunny, warm days in the Alps this summer has piqued your interest, then find out more.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ski-dazzle.mychaletbooking.com\/chalets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">You can rent out our chalets in the summertime<\/a> from July 6 &#8211; Aug 31.
