Guided Ski Touring Expeditions

For experienced skiers seeking untouched powder and remote alpine landscapes, guided ski touring expeditions offer a thrilling alternative to piste skiing. Professional UIAGM mountain guides lead small groups on multi-day tours across glaciers and peaks, utilizing skins for uphill travel and enjoying spectacular descents off-piste. Tours require excellent physical condition and advanced skiing skills. Equipment such as touring skis, skins, avalanche safety gear (transceiver, shovel, probe) is essential and can often be rented. Prices are significant, reflecting the expert guidance and safety considerations, typically CHF 800-1500 per day for a guide, split among participants. Best from February to May.
