Description
Join me for a 6-day Ski Tour through the amazing High Tyrol area of the Eastern Alps.
Surrounded by beautiful peaks, the views you will receive in this rich, high Alpine area are nothing short of incredible. This trek will also not only involve skiing, but some climbing as well. Hence making this trip truly unforgettable.
Each day of this 6 Day Itinerary is full of excitement. Each day is full of amazing things to see and do. It will be challenging though, as most days will involve anywhere between 6 to 9 Hours of Trekking. However, with so much to see in the crisp air of the High Tyrol, the time will fly by just as you will be flying through the snow.
Highlighted by some of the highest, greatest peaks in the High Tyrol area of the Alps, you will always have a majestic peak of a great mountain looming over you, just waiting for you to look up and admire. You will see the Hochalmspitze (3,360m), Grossvenediger (3,657m), Granatspitze (3,086m), and the Highest Mountain in Austria, Grossglockner (3,798m). For Grossglockner, the crown of Austria, you will be taking off your Skis and putting on your Crampons before making your way to the summit. The climb is steep and there are several exposed areas, but the view after conquering it is nothing short of incredible.
You will also get to see several stupendous valleys during this trek, including the amazing Innergschloss Valley. You will also get to eat some of the finest cuisine in the entire Alpine area at the Studhutte.
So come and join me on this amazing skiing and climbing trek through the High Tyrol region of the Alps. Where Snowy Peaks and Endless Valleys await.
I will be awaiting your message.

Mountain Guide
My name is Andreas Biberger. I grew up in Mittenwald, in the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Already as a child I was drawn to the mountains and spent a lot of time as a child on skis. At some point I started with rock climbing and everything developed gradually. After school, I first learned the profession of coach builder for cars and I also liked it a lot.
Again and again I also joined climbing courses at the local mountain school. Then I started a training to become a state-certified mountain and ski guide. I have always been passionate about endurance sports so I also tried other sports, such as triathlon, and participated in probably the most famous competition, the Ironman in Hawaii. Mountain biking is another big passion of mine.
I am a certified-IFMGA mountain guide, and for more than 20 years I have accompanied guests through the Alps several times a year. But I still like to travel in my homeland in the mountains and guide my guests to lesser-known but beautiful peaks.

What people are saying about BBS-Alpin
Ashley
Thomas was nice and took some great pictures of us. He was NOT the guide that I had been speaking with. The day before the trip the person I had been communicating with sent me a message saying that his friend was going to guide us, which felt a little weird. He was nice but not much of a guide. He didnt say much throughout the climb. I have prior experience and knowledge but We had a few inexperienced climbers with us. I was expecting a bit more instruction on climbing techniques and safety. I am a certified professional ski instructor. When I teach/guide I usually take a more active/interactive approach with clients on piest to ensure a safe, comfortable all around experience. Thomas was very nice and when asked a question gave good responses. Overall the trip was good and we all had a good time.

He is an amazing person. Loved the company and his support throughout the journey

Andreas was an awesome guide. He provided harnesses and helmets. We went in may when there was still snow on the mountain. Some of the cables were buried; he was prepared with his own ropes. He was very confident and comfortable on the mountain which made me feel safer. If doing this, bring plenty of water, gloves, wear sunscreen, and bring food
