Telemark and Alpine/Freeride Tours:
Gran Paradiso Intro Tour:hut-to-hut and day tours
– for first-time tourers
Chamonix-Zermatt Haute Route: the world class high level route
– for more ambitious and advanced ski tourers.
Day Tour options: Andermatt, Kühtai, Lenzerheide, Tignes
– for those who like less 'up' and more 'down'!
Note: We include Alpine skiers on these tours – we ensure that both Telemark and Alpine skiers receive appropriate and complete attention and time and have found this combination has worked very satisfactorily over the last few seasons. A skier's equipment is less important than a skier’s actual skiing ability!
