If you love powder, it hardly gets better than this. This season, come on this 3-day heliskiing program in Adermatt. We will fly to unique spots for amazing runs in the heart of the Alps.
The program is prepared for groups of 4 to 8 skiers, and runs Friday through Sunday during the season. I will first meet you at the Sporthotel Sonne, in Andermatt, at 9 am in the first day of the program.
While the exact activities will depend on the snow and weather conditions of those particular days, some of the potential runs and ski resorts I will guide you on are:
- Andermatt Gemsstock / Nätschen
- Oberalppass
- Sustenlimmi (heliskiing) – this includes 2 departures
We will also guide you on fantastic freeride runs. This includes the amazing glacier runs at Sustenhorn, to which we fly in to nearby Erstfeld (3,200 m).
Note that if you cannot arrive 9 am on the first day, it is advisable to consider travelling in the night before. Remember that the transfer time between Zurich Airport and Andermatt is around 2 hours 45 minutes by train, or 2 and half hours by car or taxi. I can help organize extra resort days when necessary.
Finally, in case that the weather conditions are not good for heliskiing, the complete costs of the helicopter rides will be refunded.

What happens if I need to cancel the trip?
If you decide to cancel, you’ll get a 100% refund (minus fees) if the cancellation is notified up to 60 days before the start of the tour, a 75% refund (minus fees) if you cancel between 59 and 30 days before the start of the tour, and a 50% refund if you cancel between 29 and 21 days before the start of the tour. If you cancel less than 21 days before the first day of the tour, you won’t receive a refund.
Take into account, however, that if accommodation, flights or transfers were included in the trip you booked, then a different policy may apply as the guide will be bound by the provider’s cancellation policy.
What happens if the guide cancels the trip because of bad weather/unsuitable conditions?
If bad weather or unsuitable conditions force the guide to cancel the trip, he or she will: a) propose a similar activity at a different place where conditions are better, or b) propose to postpone the activity until a later date, or c) cancel. If you refuse option a), our cancellation policy will apply. Please note, however, that the call to cancel a trip due to bad weather can only be made by the guide (not the client).
What happens if the guide doesn’t show up or cancels for personal reasons?
If the guide cancels for reason of injury or other, you will get a 100% refund on your trip.

About the Guide
I have a Masters in Geology and I am an IFMGA Mountain Guide. Skiing and climbing are my greatest passions. Also, travelling has become a great fascination of mine. What I love most about it is how it always opens up new horizons and possibilities. I love going to different parts of the world, meet new friends, my ski equipment and climbing shoes always ready to go.
Even if I have been climbing and skiing for more than 20 years, I have several pending projects in mind. At the top of my list are: climbing the Cordillera Real in Bolivia, going to the Parinacota volcano in Chile for some amazing ski mountaineering, and going again on a ski road trip through the Andes.
Skiing and climbing challenges never end! Have a look at my different tours. I hope to have you as a guest in one of them soon.
