Austria offers some of the best skiing in the world and has a famous ski lift system that will allow us to reach amazing spots. Furthermore, there is a wide variety of options for almost all weathers, which is one of many reasons why it’s one of our favorite ski locations. On this adventure, we will make the most of that variety and have great flexibility as we will be traveling and living in our camper vans.

Throughout the 5 days that we spend together, we will have the chance to work on the following topics that will enhance our big mountain and powder experiences:

  • Avalanche safety

  • Group behavior in avalanche zones

  • Understanding of outdoor risks

  • Descent and ascent line selection

  • Ski and snowboard technique coaching

  • Video analysis

  • Skinning and climbing technique

  • Crampons and ice ax skills

  • Equipment

  • Rock Climbing skills (abseiling, knots, equipment)

  • Personalized coaching to break through mental barriers

To join, you don’t need prior freeride or backcountry skiing and snowboarding experience. However, being confident riding on black slopes is a must. All genders are welcome and the minimum age to join is 15. Keep in mind that you will have to be physically fit as well, as this is an intense skiing adventure.

Ours have been crafted in a way that allows for as much riding as possible. We have a lifelong affair with the sport and are able to employ multiple approaches to passing on the necessary skills that will help you become a better skier or snowboarder.

In our view, growing up as a skier or snowboarder entails growing up as a person. We live and work in natural environments, and an important part of what we do is sharing our positive attitude towards nature.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
