Description

An absolute thrill ride in every sense, this full day heliskiing tour on Monte Rosa (4,634m) will leave you breathless!

One of the highest heliskiing tours in all of Europe, on this trip, you will get to enjoy some of the finest, most remote slopes in the Alps at an altitude exceeding 4,200 meters.

Beginning in either Gressony or Champuloc, we will make our way to Bettaforca.  From there, we will take the helicopter up to Lysjoch (4,248m). While the ride may be short, it is incredibly scenic, as you circumvent the entire Monte Rosa massif. Moreover, you will also get to admire the gorgeousness of the Aosta valley, one of the finest and most stunning areas in all of the Italian Alps.

From Lysjoh, you will get to ski along the incredible Grenzgletscher until you reach Furi. After that, we’ll make our way to Cervinia, taking advantage of the lifts until we reach the Klein Matterhorn. From there, we’ll make our way to the Verra glacier and enjoy a descent to the village of Champoluc before taking the lifts down to Gressoney. Thus concluding the adventure.

Full of beautiful scenery and great skiing, this full day trip will produce enough memories to last a lifetime. However, to participate, it is important that you have prior off-piste skiing experience. You also must be in good physical condition.

If you would like to take advantage of this great opportunity to explore Monte Rosa in a truly original, thrilling way, just send us a request.

We also offer another full day heliskiing trip in the Aosta valley that includes 2 flights and 2 runs.

Successful summit to the top of Matterhorn! Managed to get a clear day which was lucky. Views and pictures were incredible. The guide Franchini was a top guy. His experience put me at ease having climbed Lhotse in the past. Very knowledgeable. He prioritised safety the whole time. Me being English and him Italian. We found it hard to understand each other occasionally. Which I felt could be very frustrating for him at times. I didn’t take this personally as I just tried to follow his instructions as best as I could. Considering our differences we always laughed in the end. I would consider him a friend now. Silvia was also helpful for preparation. Much appreciated.
