PHOTO GETTY ALPINE PURSUITS 30JetAway Freezy Rider An icy mountain paradise just 120km from Chambéry, Val Cenis is the perfect place to try your hand at dog sledding and snowshoeing. Matthew Lee warms up for some off-piste winter sports
NOVEMBER– DECEMBER Dog Sledding The four huskies that pulled my sled across the mountains of Val Cenis made me jealous. Sure, they were doing all the hard work, valiantly dragging me up hills. But although the sun was shining, the bracing winds cut through my gloves and I couldn’t help but envy the dense, furry coats shielding them from the cold. After ten minutes on the trail, my digits were no longer functioning – a major problem when you’re rattling down a slope at terrific speeds. I fell off my sled with predictable regularity. I hadn’t been expecting such a rollercoaster ride. Naively I’d imagined a relaxing excursion with my canine chauffeurs, a chance to soak up the spectacular scenery. As the trip got bumpier and the bars upon which I placed my feet got ever more slippery, just staying on became mission impossible. To steer, I had to lean in my desired direction, which nearly landed me in frozen water every time. I understood the importance of developing a rapport Sledding is wind-inthe-hair exhilarating, like skiing downhill on a bucking horse with the huskies. I smiled at them pre-ride and shouted instructions in schoolboy French (rather than confuse them with a foreign language), but my canine companions seemed to have their own ideas where to go – and how fast we should travel. At its speediest moments sledding was windin-the-hair exhilarating, like skiing downhill on a bucking horse. But it also had its challenges. On one occasion the huskies turned right instead of left and I had to be rescued by our tour leader while everybody else in our convoy waited for me to catch up. With a bit of guidance I somehow made it to the end of the circuit. The beleaguered quartet doing the driving returned to a tent marked “Dortoir Chiens”, a dormitory for dogs, while I went over to the fire to warm up again and reflect on what had been – despite all the tumbles and spills – a unique and memorable experience.
