The ski area around Val d'Isère and Tignes - Espace Killy - bids immense possibilities for off-piste skiing at all levels, from your first steps outside the groomed slopes to steep and deep couloirs for the more adventurous experts.
All around Val d'Isère, the Vanoise National Parc has preserved vast patches of wilderness, giving the area its unique character. These magnificent and preserved valleys are nevertheless easily accessible from the lifts, and from Val d’Isère one can also ski to the neighbouring areas of la Plagne, Les Arcs or the Maurienne valley for day trips.
So for one or several days, from our base in Val d'Isère or from where you are staying, I can share with you the pleasure of skiing the local off-piste classics :

<ul>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Tour du Charvet,</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Arcelle,</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Marmottons,</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Cugnai,</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Grand Vallons,</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Chardonnet</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">etc…</li>
</ul>
Before venturing further on skins (ski touring), or on the neighbouring areas of Sainte Foy, La Plagne, Les Arcs, or the 3 Vallées.
By yourself, with family (big kids and teenagers welcome !) or friends, I will adapt the day’s program to your wishes and technical ability. I will provide you with all the necessary safety equipment (airbag, shovel, probe, DVA beeper, harness when on glaciers) and advise you on the suitable ski gear if necessary.
Should you wish to join a group of like minded skiers to go off-piste, every morning TopSki organises off-piste groups of different levels to discover all that Val d’Isere offers. 6 people max.
My daily guiding fee is 410€ and this includes the above mentioned equipment for the members of the group.
One or more days of freeride skiing can be combined with <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/guided-ski-touring-val-disere/">backcountry skiing / ski touring</a> and even <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/guided-heliskiing-val-disere">heliskiing</a>. Feel free to contact me for a personalised program that will enable you to make the most of your holidays while discovering the unspoiled wilderness of the Tarentaise and the Maurienne, far from the crowded resorts.

Ski touring in Haute Tarentaise

Damien Grange

Freerando in Tignes / Val d'Isère, Tarentaise

In the heart of the Vanoise National Park, Tignes and Val d'Isère offer one the largest free-ride areas in the world.

It's in the heart of this skiing paradise that I offer, whatever your level might be, to discover the free-ride, the ski-touring, or long drops to conquer the most beautiful peaks, as well as ski tours sleeping in refuges.

During one or several days, this is a great experience that awaits you.

The richness of the Tarentaise valley will take us into the neighboring resorts of Sainte Foy, Les Arcs / La Plagne, or to a ride to  neighboring Italy. Change of scenery guaranteed!!!

Upon request or in group of 6 people maximum, I will share my little secret places, and as a good day doesn't finish when the chairlifts close, we can chat over a drink of the time spent together but also about future projects!!!

Ski touring in Tignes and Val d'Isère

Beyond the many available off-piste descents, the area around Val d’Isère is rich in magnificent back country skiing itineraries only open to the skiers equipped with skins and ski touring gear. 
A little effort and a short walk of under an hour already leaves the vast majority of skiers behind, and opens the way to wide virgin slopes for unforgettable mornings of skiing pleasure. Ski touring does not require extraordinary skiing ability nor physical fitness; after some technical coaching on the use of the equipment, the average skier can already enjoy superb touring.
I would be delighted to initiate you to the delights of ski touring, and share the joys of the mountains far from the ski lifts. Bigger children and teenagers welcome !
For the more experienced, we can choose longer day tours, as well as hut-to-hut tours sleeping in refuges. There are many refuges around Val d’Isère  (Prariond, Carro, Sevettes, Averole..) from which we can also ski to the Italian valleys of the Val d’Aoste.
I will provide you with all the necessary safety material (airbag, shovel, probe, DVA beeper, harness when on glaciers) and advise you on the suitable ski gear if necessary.
My daily guiding fee is 410€ and it includes the above mentioned equipment.
I will take maximum 6 skiers with me in order to maximise the safety of the group. If you would come with more than 6 people, my colleague Xavier, IFMGA mountain guide as well, will join us.
One or more days of ski touring in Val d'Isère can be combined with <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/freeride-skiing-guide-val-isere-tignes/">off-piste / freeride skiing </a>days and even <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/guided-heliskiing-val-disere/">heliskiing</a>. Please contact me to discuss your projects and aspirations, and we can define together an ad-hoc program.

Guided ski touring around Val d'Isère

Val d’Isère, thanks to its closeness to Italy, offers many amazing heliskiing possibilities: you can either enjoy pick ups from neighbouring valleys or drops on the Italian side. These heliskiing days will stay in your memory because of the quantity and quality of the skiing, as well as for the beauty of the mountains seen from above, and the excitement of flying.
Please find below some of the beautiful itineraries I like to take with my friends and clients, based in Val d'Isère or in other ski resorts of Tarentaise and Maurienne.
Bonneval sur Arc
Starting from Pissaillas in Val d’Isere, and after approximately 40 minutes of skinning, we reach the Ouille Noire Pass and descend onto the neighbouring valley of the Montets, where we will enjoy long descents of powder or spring snow, all the way down to the small town of Bonneval sur Arc. This is the resort of the Maurienne, located at the foot of the Albarron (3640m), amidst a landscape of great glaciers scarred by gigantic seracs.
The spectacular helicopter flight back to Val d’Isere, 1000m above the Vanoise National Parc, finishes off this splendid day of skiing.
Ruitor / Miravidi
Starting from La Rosiere, we ski towards the Petit Saint Bernard Pass where the Italian helicopter await us. According to the snow and weather conditions, there are many itineraries to choose from: Mt Ouille, Mt Miravidi, Mt Freduaz, Mt Ruitor and more!  It is possible to opt for one, two or even three consecutive drops, the last one on the French-Italian border to ski back to France.
Valgrisenche Valley
The valley of Valgrisenche, on the Italian side of the mountain, is only a few kilometers away from Val d’Isere by helicopter, but it takes hours to reach it by road. This preserved valley is one of the heliski hotspots of the Alps, where you can do several consecutive drops over one or two days, sleeping in one of the atmospheric local inns.
One or more days of heliski can be combined with <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/freeride-skiing-guide-val-isere-tignes/">off-piste</a> and <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/guided-ski-touring-val-disere">ski-touring</a> days. Send me a request if you want to join me on this great heliskiing tour! We can discuss your projects and aspirations and define together an ad-hoc program.

After landing, we we will use the La Rosiere lifts, which will give you access some exciting skiing runs!

The powder throughout the valley is wonderful, as are the slopes.

All we require is that participants are in good physical condition and have prior off-piste skiing experience. Other then that, you are good to go.

Tarentaise Valley, France, Guided Heliski Tour

Jean-Marc Kaufmann

Join me at the beautiful French commune of Val d'Isere in the Tarentaise Valley for a day of ski touring or off-piste skiing.

Val d'Isere is known for great skiing. It's famous for it. And it has been famous for it for decades. So it's only natural that people want to explore it. However, not everybody wants to stick to the normal routes. Some people want to tour beyond those routes. They want to ski in places where there are no tracks, no traces of past skiers. And that's what makes this trip so special. Because this is a trip focused on ski touring for as far as you wish, and off-piste skiing that allows to ski off the beaten path.

There is so much to see in the Tarentaise Valley. And with the freedom this trip offers, from morning only, to half-day, to full-day options, you will get to see as much of it as you have the energy to explore. Besides Val d'Isere, you can also venture into Tignes, Les Arcs, La Plagne, La Rosiere, even Chamonix and La Grave. You can even cross into Switzerland and Italy, with the gorgeous snowy peaks of the Alps looming above, watching, greeting you quietly. While you take in the silence and peace.

Flexibility is the key to this trip. The option of where you ski, how you ski, and how long you ski is entirely up to you. If you only have a little skiing experience and want to expand your range. Or you are an expert who wants a quiet, open place to practice. If you are by yourself, or with your friends or family, this trip adapts to your needs, not the other way around.

So come and join me for a free, open, ski-touring or off-piste, private or group trip, in Val d'Isere.

I'll be awaiting your message.

If you are interested in a much more extensive French ski-touring expedition. You can also join me on this <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/8-day-ski-tour-around-queyras-valley/">8-day ski tour</a> in the Queyras Valley.

Val d'Isere guided ski touring, off-piste skiing

Hoping to explore the best spots in Espace Killy in the French Alps? Looking to improve your skills or refine your style? Skiing with a guide allows you to make the most of your time skiing in the Haute Tarentaise region. I or another instructor that works with me can create a program to perfectly suit your needs and wishes.
I live in Sainte Foy, so I know Haute Tarentaise very well. And I really enjoy guiding my friends and clients here. My favorite thing to do is show them around my secret ski spots where we can connect with real nature and be far away from popular areas.
You can come alone, with your friends and/or with your family to enjoy a good time, experience something new, and learn new things. It will be my pleasure to have you here and show you around. But because I lead many other mountain trips around the world, I might not be available to guide you during the dates you request. In that case another expert guide at the ski school will take my place.
The program will be defined based on your ski level, your wishes and the snow / weather conditions.
Contact me and let's plan your next guided ski day here!
In addition, you can check out some of my other amazing trips, like ski tours in <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/ski-touring-spitsbergen-svalbard/">Norway</a> and <a href="http://www.explore-share.com/trip/toubkal-9-day-guided-ski-touring/">Morocco</a>.

Off-piste and ski touring in Tarentaise

France Mountain Guides-

In Tarentaise, and in particular in the ski resorts of Val d'Isère and Tignes (espace Kelly) we can find the perfect spots for off-piste and freeride ski. Come with me and enjoy fresh and weightless powder snow!
This is a very convenient location, since there are good ski lifts and the routes are numerous and very varied. Both expert skiers and those with some experience will find what they are looking for. From simply an opportunity to leave the crowded pistes to a great new challenge.
I am headquartered in Bourg-Saint-Maurice, at the base of the large resorts of Haute Tarentaise. Therefore, I am very familiar with the places that surround me. Les Arcs, La Plagne, Sainte Foy, La Rosière / La Thuile, Les 3 Vallées, but also Chamonix and la Grave.
My goal is to guide you to the best snow, in all safety, enjoying the ride.
There are some famous freeride / off-piste ski descents in Val d'Isère and Tignes. Some of my  favourites are:

<ul>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Le Tour du Charvet</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">La vallée Perdu</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Les combes de la Sache</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Terres Rouges</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Grande Balme</li>
 	<li style="text-align: justify">Petite Balme</li>
</ul>
Another option is to leave for a ski touring adventure, in the discovery of even wilder places in Haute Tarentaise.
Are you planning a trip to Tarentaise? Then get in touch with me! I would love guiding you around Tignes or Val d'Isère during one or more days, far from the beaten tracks, far from the crowds.

Val d'Isère and Tignes freeride skiing

Overall the experience was great - Xavier really knew the local area catered to everyones abilities in the group and offered some great advice.
I would love to book another day trip (or maybe even a multi day trip!) with Xavier so I could experience some of the peace and quiet you get away from the piestes in the remote areas of the mountains.
Would recommend to anyone that wants to explore the mountains away from the crowds. 

Guided ski touring around Val d&#8217;Isère

Goulven a une lecture époustouflante de la montagne. Son histoire personnelle est passionnante et en dit long sur son expertise.
Etant guide à travers le monde et co-pilote d’hélicoptère de secours dans les Alpes, on se sent rassuré de le suivre hors des sentiers battus.
Je recommande vivement d’être guidé par Goulven, surtout pour des randonnées techniques.

Le ski de randonnée et free-ride en compagnie d\'Alex se sont merveilleusement bien passés. Ce guide de hautes montagnes très sympathique et expérimenté dans son domaine nous a fait passer de belles journées sportives dans un cadre magnifique.
