In the winter, Alpe Tza de Fontaney is the end point of a snowshoe trail that starts from the cross-country ski center. This well-marked trail is very popular, and is therefore usually well-groomed. The climb out of the forest to reach the mountain pasture can be quite challenging when faced with deep, soft snow.

Here you will find the silence of high altitude, broken only by the gentle lapping of the lake, while the surrounding peaks such as Punta Tzan and Dôme de Tzan act as silent guardians. A perfect place for those seeking an immersive mountain experience, enriched by the bivouac next to the shores and a peace that remains in the heart.
