Guided Ski Touring in the Chamonix area
Far of the crowded resorts we get to climb spectacular peaks and desecend wide open slopes and/or steep couloirs through virgin powder.
Whether you are a ski touring newcomer wanting to learn about kick turns and avalanche safety, or an experienced ski mountaineer looking for the perfect ski, we organize the perfect program for your ski touring days.
Skinning with skis and sometimes climbing on foot with crampons our local ski guides find you fresh snow several days after the last snow fall. One day or multi day trips where we spend the night in mountain refuges, will take you over mountain passes and into hidden valleys or to wild peaks inaccessible by lifts.
However, Chamonix has numerous possibilities where we combine ascending with lifts and climbing on skis, or your ski tour can be combined with an ascent in the helicopter.
Best time: End of December to beginning of May
Ability:
Ski touring introduction is suitable for those who ski confidently Red/Black runs.
The final decision where to go will be made based on your level of skiing, snow conditions and avalanche safety aspects.
