What to do in Saint-Martin-de-Belleville during winter?
This resort offers a variety of mountain activities that will make you want to get out of your room. Winter is a great time for snow sports. Get away from it all with Nordic skiing on the resort's slopes. Introductory cross-country courses are also available for a gentle start. If you want to discover the mountains in an original way, you can also opt for ski touring. Off-piste skiing is a good alternative for the more experienced.
The Belleville Valley is also an interesting playground for snowshoe enthusiasts. This is a great way to discover the natural heritage of the area. Want to get off the beaten track? Try the Speed Mountain (tobogganing on rails), accessible from the Bruyeres district.
Of course, you can also simply admire the incredible view from the ski lifts. They also give you access to the peaks and the Three Valleys. From Les Menuires you can even book a ride on a snow groomer to discover the hidden side of life in the resort and off the slopes.
Other traditional activities such as cani-rando or dog sledding are also a must during your holiday in the Alps. Take a walk in the winter countryside to recharge your batteries.
In any case, don't forget to think about the activities you want to do before finalising the rental of your exceptional apartment or chalet. Accommodation at the foot of the slopes, a stone's throw from the ski lifts, close to the village centre and its shops, etc., it's up to you to make a list of your requirements. You can also ask Emerald Stay to advise you on the most prestigious rentals in Savoie and the Alps.
