Dômes de Miage 3 day ski touring

Price: 740€

Book now

The Tré la Tête glacier boasts a magnificent crown of peaks perfect for ski mountaineering, and we offer what is surely the finest ski tour combination: Mont Tondu, La Bérengère, and the famous Dômes de Miage—renowned for their exquisitely beautiful, razor-sharp snow ridges. We will traverse part of this range before plunging 2,000 meters down to Les Contamines via the famous Armancette Glacier descent. This is a technical, rugged tour designed for highly skilled ski mountaineers—an ideal way to get in shape before attempting to ski up Mont Blanc!

 

Dômes de Miages day by day itinerary

Subject to change depending on weather / mountain conditions & participants fitness.

Day 0 : 

Telephone appointment with your guide for a program briefing, plus gear check at the hotel, and confirm meeting time in the evening of Day 0.

Your guide will bring the gear you have requested from us on day 1.

Night in the hotel*** in shared twin room & breakfast included. Dinner is at your charge.

Day 1: Les Contamines – Refuge des Prés 1937 m

From "Notre-Dame de la Gorge," we head up the Roman road to the Refuge des Prés, located in the high pastures below the Col de la Fenêtre. After dropping off our gear, we set out for the Col de la Fenêtre (2,245 m), then traverse the western and southern slopes to reach the Col de la Cicle. From there, we can either descend directly via the north slope or continue to the Col des Chasseurs. We then descend the north slope to return to the Refuge des Prés.
Duration: 4 to 6 hours
Elevation gain: +1400m and - 700 m

 

 

Day 2: Refuge des Prés - Mont Tondu – Refuge des Conscrits

A magnificent high-mountain stage passing by the Lacs Jovets and the shoulder of Mont Tondu, reaching its fore-summit. We descend the north face onto the Tré la Tête Glacier, then climb back up to the Conscrits Refuge at 2,600 m. Skis may need to be carried for a short section during the ascent of Mont Tondu.
Duration: 6 to 7 hours
Elevation gain/loss: +1,350m / -650m

 

Day 3: Col des Dômes and Dômes de Miage Armancette glacier.

An early morning start to ascend the Tré la Tête glacier—which is relatively flat—heading towards the Col Infranchissable. We then ascend a broad, slightly steeper valley to the left, leading to the Col des Dômes at 3,564 m. The final few meters are covered on foot. From the pass, we climb—skis strapped to our packs—up the snow ridge to the Dôme (3,633 m). There are superb views of Mont Blanc and the Aiguille de Bionnassay. We descend via slopes that are steep at first (35–40°) onto the Armancette glacier, continuing down to Lac d'Armancette before walking the rest of the way back to the cars.
Duration: 5 to 6 hours
Elevation change: +1,000 m / -2,200 m

 

 

Note and Extension:

If you want to add 2 more days skiing on this program for a full week skiing, please let us know as there are many off piste and ski touring possibilities around the Chamonix valley.

If you wish to do our "Haute route Chamonix to Zermatt" this program can be an excellent preparation to improve your technique and your fitness.

Possibility to keep on enjoying what you have learned with our Haute Route Chamonix-Zermatt, a mythical ski mountaineering course linking the two famous alpine capitals.

Fitness Level

You need to be in excellent physical condition, as this tour takes place in high-mountain terrain and occasionally requires carrying your skis on your pack. This can be your first ski tour, provided you have prior experience with crampons and a strong level of ski touring proficiency.

Stages lasting 5 to 6 hours

 

Technical Level
