Description
This 4-day Silvretta Alps traverse is perfect for the intermediate ski tourer. Join me on this expedition and bag some of the most famous peaks in these mountains!
The Silvretta Alps comprise around 70 peaks running along the Austrian-Swiss border. Their backcountry terrain is a favorite among ski tourers from every corner of the world!
If conditions are right, we'll go for the Piz Buin summit (3312 meters). Even if it's not the highest in the Silvretta Alps, it is the most popular among skiers and mountaineers.
This 4-day ski tour starts and finishes in Ischgl, Austria. Along the way, we'll stay in the best mountain huts in the Alps. We'll be greeted with great food, hot showers and lots of beer!
A maximum of 4 people can take this Silvretta Alps ski tour together. So get a group together and come enjoy the wonders these magnificent mountains have to offer! Also, an intermediate ski touring ability is a pre-requisite for the expedition.
Still not convinced? Read about the amazing experience of a group of friends who went on this hut-to-hut ski tour on February.
I also offer several other ski touring programs. If you are ready for an even more demanding expedition, be sure to check out my Classic ski tour from Chamonix to Zermatt and travel the famous Haute Route.

About the guide
Hi! I'm Renato, IFMGA guide from the Dolomites, and I work together with my colleagues Robert, Bruno, Patrick, Benedetta & Walter (German speaking). If I'm not available to guide you, one of them will take care of you.
I was born in 1961, I live in Campitello di Fassa, in the Dolomites, together with my family. I have two sons, one is a mountain guide, the other is a ski instructor. I am a certified mountain guide since 1982, an instructor of guides, alpine ski instructor and a Federal coach for ISEF.
Being in the mountains has always been my passion, guiding people, teaching them climbing, mountaineering... during the various seasons of the year. I very much enjoy drawing nice curves in fresh powder snow and discover the charm of the frozen waterfalls.
My curriculum and professional mountaineering is made of many ascents and some openings of routes in the Dolomites and the Alps. I climbed in Yosemite Valley (California), Ben Nevis (Scotland) and Norway, Greece, Spain and Sardinia. I did also several high altitude climbs like Mt Denali (Alaska), Ama Dablam (6828m), Cho Oyu (8201m), Manaslu (8163m), Shivling in India (6545m), Cotopaxi and Chimborazo in Ecuador (5897m and 6310m), Patagonia (Argentina).
Feel free to get in touch with me if you are coming in the Dolomites for skiing (alpine, freeride and ski touring), rock climbing, sport climbing and multi pitch climbing. It will be my pleasure to guide you here and let you discover my secret spots.
