Description

Do you want to ski the Rosablanche having to worry about nothing other than enjoying the most out of it? Then this Prestige guided heliski day is what you’re looking for!

The Rosablanche (3396 m) is located in the southwest of Switzerland, in the Canton Valais and is part of the Pennine Alps. It’s consider to be one of the best places for heliskiing in Europe for its pristine slopes and wonderful scenery 

And this program will take you to this summit and down in the most exclusive way. I have been guiding ski tours for a very long time and I know this area like the back of my hand. I make sure to always use the best equipment available and go out with the latest safety standards. Plus I make sure my team of drivers, pilots and assistants is highly qualified.

So I’ll come pick you up at your hotel and take you to the heliport from where we’ll start our adventure. From the beginning of the trip I’ll make sure you feel comfortable and I’ll answer all your questions or doubts.

This mountains can be intimidating, so I’ll explain you everything you need to know. ANd, off course, I’ll let you know how the ABS airbag system that I’ll give you works. This is the best way to reduce the risk at the minimum.

From then on I assure you that you’ll have the best time of your life. The helicopter ride will be an adventure on its own. And the ski down will be stuck in your memory forever.

And then I’ll have someone waiting for us at the end of the run, so forget about spending those final moments tired and waiting to get home. You’ll be relaxing back at your hotel as soon as possible.

So, don’t hesitate about it, send me a request and start planning your exclusive heliskiing day out in Rosablanche.

Olivier our guide was excellent and we would use him again. Unfortunately, we didn't do any Backcountry skiing due to the poor and dangerous conditions. I think Explore-Share should have been more proactive in keeping us informed of the conditions and the fact that it didn't allow for backcountry skiing; we forfeited a day with our guide given the conditions were so bad and the only option was to ski on piste. Further, I would have expected Explore-Share to advise us of the extra cost of the avalanche gear (an extra 600 francs) in advance.

Plus de temps doit être consacré à la familiarisation de l'équipement qu'on portait dans nos sacs, pelle, sonde. Quoi faire si le guide est emporté par une avalanche, une deuxième radio devrait être porté par un des clients, comment utiliser les émetteurs de détresse lors d'une recherche.

Bonjour Anne-Françoise, La sortie de samedi dernier m’a entièrement ravi : excellente ambiance, baptême de l’air paisible, parcours de toute beauté sous l’œil attentif et encourageant de Peter, bref un grand moment de ski, en prime sous un ciel parfaitement dégagé ! Bravo pour l’organisation, en ce compris la navette de retour et la livraison sur place des packs de sécurité. Merci pour tout et….à la prochaine !!!

Hi Gilbert, I wanted to drop you and Cédric a thank you note. You have had a crazy patience with all my complicated wishes and you really helped making it happen. I really appreciated you help and it was a super great experience, something I will not forget. We felt extremely comfortable with your guidance and hopefully there will be a chance to go on another tour in the future. I am now officially addicted to the deep snow experience J. If you need a client statement from you on your website or anything, just let me know. Happy to do so. I can also post something on social media…. Cheers and thanks again!
