Winter Sports
In Lorraine Looking for an alternative destination for enjoying some winter sports? Then look no further than Lorraine! The Vosges Mountain range offers a huge variety of winter sports in a stunning setting of mountains, forests, hilltops, corries and endless vistas. First of course is skiing. Whether you prefer downhill skiing, cross-country skiing or even trekking, you are sure to find what you are looking for in Lorraine. The Vosges are a dream for cross-country skiing, with more than 300 kilometer's of sign posted, compacted trails that will satisfy family outings as well as the more experienced skier. Biathlon is an extremely popular sport in the Vosges area, as is tobogganing, a sport which was particularly popular in the early development of the Vosges as a recreational destination, and is enjoying a comeback! If you prefer to enjoy the snow wearing snow shoes rather than skies, there are many footpaths and trails you can follow safely while enjoying the breath taking Vosges scenery. If you prefer not to venture out alone, there are also qualified mountain guides ready to take you on outings, by day or night. The more adventurous can try more unusual sports such as winter paragliding, skiwind or snowfunboard. You can also learn to drive a skidoo on a track or perhaps try ice-climbing. |
