The **Gasteiner Valley** is located in the Salzburger Land in Austria. **It is a little paradise for freerider / off piste skier and snowboarder.**

The area is composed of 4 ski resorts : **Schlossalm-Angertal-Stubnerkogel**, **Sportgastein**, **Graukogel** and **Dorfgastein-Großarl**. Based on your ski level, your wishes and the weather / snow conditions, we can go and explore together the backcountry terrains where the powder is the best for some awesome Freeride skiing runs.

Join me for one or several days and let’s escape the stressful everyday life by exploring the natural beauty and silence away from the crowded slopes of Austria!

After a short basic risk training, our focus will be put on fun and safety!

I will let you discover the best pristine spots for you to enjoy great skiing and come back home with a large smile on your face.

The average steepness goes around 30 to 40° and the altitude difference of the vertical runs goes from 800 to 1800 meters.

The best period to come skiing in the Gasteiner Valley is from December till April.

I will take maximum 6 persons with me in order to ensure the safety of the group. If you are more than 6, I will ask a friend of mine, IFMGA mountain guide as well, to join us.

**I know all these places very well and it will be my pleasure to bring you there. If you plan to come in the Valley during your next winter holidays, please get in touch with me and let’s plan together one or several days of Freeride skiing in the area.**

Join Gernot, an Austrian IFMGA mountain guide, for one or several days of powder freeride and off piste skiing in the Gasteiner Valley close to Salzburg.

Guided Freeride skiing in Gasteiner

Within the **Alps** of **Austria,** especially in the **Gasteiner valley**, there are a number of wonderful areas where the **free ride skiing** is superb. You really can't lose wherever you choose. And that's what makes the **Alps** such a skiers paradise. So the decision as to where to ski often comes down to what kind of experience you are looking for. At **Graukogel**, the runs are as exciting as they are difficult, so if what you're looking for is a challenge, then **Graukogel** is for you.

The difference in altitude in **Graukogel** ranges from **1,079 metres** to **2,007 metres**. This provides nearly **one kilometre** of potential **downhill skiing**. Thus giving all visitors ample space and time to enjoy the slopes. However, as I previously mentioned, those downhill runs can be tough.

Off-setting the difficulty of the ski runs is that most of them go through **forests.** Along with being beautiful to look at, especially when draped in white snow, the forests also provide great shelter from wind, making it easier to ski on days where there is poor visibility.

As a result of the difficult presented by the runs of **Graukogel**, participants should have **some prior experience**. Also, as is usually the case with **free ride skiing**, participants should be in **good physical condition** as well.

**So if you are looking for an exciting and challenging off-piste skiing adventure in the Alps of Austria then Graukogel is the place for you!  I have no doubt you'll end the day both exhausted and overjoyed. If that sounds like the type of day you want, just send me a request.**

I can also guide you on [this free ride skiing day](https://www.explore-share.com/trip/sportgastein-gastein-guided-freeride-skiing/) at **Sportgastein**, which is also in the **Gasteiner valley**.
