March is prime time in the mountains, with longer days, cold snow and lively huts. Chase big ski touring lines from Italy’s Grand Paradiso to the glacier raid in the Vanoise, circle the Pierra Menta, or link summits in the Queyras. Explore around Mont Blanc with routes from Les Contamines to Argentière, learn at La Grave, start strong at the Grand Saint Bernard, or commit to the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt. Want to level up this season? Aim for the 4000 m summits of Monte Rosa, a focused weekend in the Aravis with a hut night, or a splitboard mini raid from Chamonix. These are the adventure trips in March that make winter feel endless.
If snowshoes are more your pace, March delivers too. Settle into cosy refuges in the Vosges, traverse the Swiss Jura with fondue and sauna, or roam the panoramas of Haute Ubaye and the Meije. Sleep in an igloo facing La Meije, try cani snowshoeing with winter bivouacs in the Écrins, or haul pulkas across the wild Jura plateaus. Further north, step into the Arctic with fjord views on Senja, follow the Kungsleden beneath the northern lights, or cross Norway’s Finnmark by dog sled.
Prefer soft adventure close to home? Drift through Belgium by packraft on the Semois or the Lesse, roll a weekend bikepacking loop in the Hautes Fagnes or the forests of Saint Hubert, track wolves with a naturalist in the Vercors or the Écrins, learn survival basics in the Ardennes, or reset on a yoga retreat in Durbuy. Choose your playground and book your adventure trips in March.
