If you are looking for something beyond the traditional snow holidays, where conventional skiing is not enough and the cold becomes your ally, this organized adventure trip to the snow is made for you. Imagine a unique experience, full of adrenaline and epic moments in the middle of nature, surrounded by snowy mountains. From heli-skiing to bivouacs at the summit, we assure you that this trip will be something you will remember for a lifetime.
What does the trip include?
We have designed an extreme snow adventure that includes some of the most exciting activities you can do in the mountains. Here is what awaits you:
1. Heli-skiing: Descend from the Heights
We start the trip in style with a day of heli-skiing . A helicopter will take you to the most remote peaks, where there are no prepared slopes. Feeling the adrenaline rush of flying over mountains, before landing in virgin areas, and then descending in powder snow is an unrivalled experience. This type of skiing is reserved for the most adventurous, those who want to explore the mountains in the most extreme way possible.
Estimated dates: late January or February, when snow conditions are optimal for heli-skiing.
2. Ski Mountaineering: Up and Down in Pure Nature
Ski mountaineering or ski touring is one of the most authentic ways to connect with the Alpine environment. It is not just about descending, but also about gaining ground by climbing on foot with skis equipped with sealskins. The feeling of reaching peaks inaccessible to others and witnessing unexplored landscapes is indescribable. In addition, you will prepare yourself physically with challenging climbs and then enjoy a long and exciting descent.
Estimated dates: February-March, when weather conditions allow long routes safely.
3. Mountain Bivouac: Sleeping Under the Stars
For the more intrepid, we have included a night of bivouac in the mountains. After an intense day of ski mountaineering or snowshoeing, you will head to a remote area where you will set up your outdoor shelter. Imagine spending the night surrounded by snow, with the starry sky above you and the absolute calm of the mountains. It is an experience for true adventurers who want to completely disconnect from the modern world.
Estimated dates: March, when the nights are cold but tolerable for a bivouac adventure.
4. Snowshoeing and Exploration: Discover the Mountain at Your Own Pace
For those who want a quieter, but no less impressive adventure, we organize snowshoe routes through unexplored snowy landscapes. We will walk through inaccessible areas, crossing snow-covered forests, hidden valleys and lonely peaks. The sensation of advancing through untouched terrain, where only your steps leave a mark, is something magical.
Estimated dates: December-January, when the snow is at its best for snowshoeing.
5. Sledding: Feel like a child again
To add a fun touch to the adventure, we organize a day of sledding down some of the longest and fastest slopes in the area. You will feel the speed and the wind in your face as you slide down the snow. It is a perfect activity to release tension and simply enjoy the moment, either on a traditional sled or on a modern high-speed version.
Estimated dates: any time in winter, when the snow is in perfect condition.
