White Trail - Sommand Plateau

A snow trail run along the marked and groomed pedestrian trails at the Praz de Lys Sommand resort.

Access via Sommand only. A route with minimal elevation gain, ideal for trying out the sport or training on terrain that presents no particular challenges. The detour toward the Col de la Ramaz adds a “challenging” element to the route!

Breathtaking views of Haut Fleury, Haute Pointe, Pertuiset, Rovagne, Chavasse… All these peaks overlook Sommand!

Across from the Sommand residences, walk down the steep slope to reach the trailhead. Turn left onto the marked pedestrian trail.
1/ Pass by Lake Sommand, which remains frozen for much of the winter. Turn left to cross the road after the Vacca Park Hotel, then join the “Boucle de Farquet.”
2/ At the Ramaz chalets, head down to the right toward the resort center, where the more athletic can continue on a round-trip hike to the Col de la Ramaz (shown as a dotted line on the map).
3/ The route continues gently along the
Sapins loop back to the starting point.
