Nothing says epic ski trip like a day on at the site of the first Winter Olympics in 1924! This incredible landscape is located near Mont Blanc, Aiguille du Midi, and the Aiguilles Rouges, some of the most iconic mountains of the Alps. The French commune caters to skiing and snowboarding, the perfect recipe for an unforgettable ski touring expedition.
The terrain of Chamonix is remarkable. You will be skiing in fresh snow wherever you go. Depending on what you want in your itinerary, we can ski tour around glaciers, steep alpine bowls, high ridges, or open glades. The area is loaded with high quality snow, and without lines or crowds it is all for us. Starting early in the morning, we will get out to a variety of lines and runs for an entire day of memorable skiing.
With a guide, you will be able to reach some of the best pockets of powder in the area. We can even head to Vallee Blanche and the world’s longest ski descent. Cable car access to Aiguille du Midi also allows us to find some of the untouched powder hiding around the valley. The choice is yours – let me know what you are looking for on your ideal ski trip and I will tailor a program around your needs and abilities.
If one day just isn’t enough, we can extend your program to give you as much time as you want in the valley. There are a multitude of ski sites to explore and discover. You should be comfortable in uneven terrain and prepared for a full day in the backcountry. You should be in good shape and ready for a unique program in Chamonix!

We had a very exciting day with Willy! We had never done a via ferrata before and did Pont-a-Lesse and Marche-les-Dames in one day. Willy explained the different techniques very well and adapted to our wishes and the circumstances perfectly. Gauthier adviced us in the beginning correctly that Marche-les-Dames would be better for us than Les-Grandes-Malades in terms of difficulty. Overall we were very happy with the choice, spend a great day outdoors and can definitely recommend this adventure!

We had a really fantastic day of bouldering in Fontainebleau with our guide Ivan. He is very experienced and knows the region well. He showed us great boulders and routes that we would not have found on our own, and kept a good pace to keep us going for the full six hours.

We got a guide for backcountry skiing in Chamonix. The guide was excellent in fulfilling our wishes even though the viability was poor and snow layer thin. Our goals was to in a quiet nature area with not too many people. We ended up with 1000 meter gain and a ski through the forest over a 6 hour period. I was one of my best ski experiences.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
