Chamonix guided backcountry skiing tour

Join me in Chamonix to live a wonderful backcountry skiing experience !

Practicing ski touring enables to access the mountains during a period when it seems they are hibernating. In fact, backcountry skiing allows us to visit specific spots of the mountain ranges, where our curiosity pushes us to go. Furthermore, the time we spend to reach the locations we want to explore is shorter, because we are going faster thanks to the skiing.

I just love to have lunch up there, in a wild place, where very few people go. Moreover, there we can all share a unique time looking at the breathtaking views around us.

It will be my pleasure to let you discover my valley, Chamonix and the Mont Blanc range. However, we can also go to other ski spots of the Alps. That’s why the program will be defined according to your wishes and your level as well as the snow and weather conditions.

Ski touring in les Aiguilles Rouges is one of my favorite tour in Chamonix 😉 !

We can go for a one-day trip, leaving from a place with no ski resort. On the contrary, we can go in an area where we can use the lifts to go up. In that way we will then put the skins on and reach places far from the crowds.

We can also go for a several-day ski tour, from hut to hut, or coming back every evening at the same place.

Regarding your safety during this trip, let me tell you that ski touring takes place on non-marked and non-secured terrains. In addition, the snow conditions of the region vary each day. Each participant will have an avalanche transceiver and a harness when skiing on glaciers.

That’s why the avalanche risk and skiing in areas with crevasses require going with a mountain guide. Thus, I will need your 100% commitment in respecting the security and safety rules.

This ski touring trip is suitable for all levels. Ideally, for skiers who have already a certain level on the ski slopes, with or without an off-piste skiing experience. A minimum physical shape is also a requirement. However, the program will be adapted to the level of the participants.

Feel free to get in touch with me if you come in the area of Chamonix. Let’s discuss about a ski touring program you would like to do. It will be my pleasure to guide you in this beautiful valley and fantastic mountain range.
