Description

Would you like to join a unique ski touring program in the French Alps? Then join us on this 3-day beginner ski touring adventure in Beaufortain!

Beaufortain is a stunning valley in the Savoie department in southeast France. This breathtaking spot is a top location for ski touring and will be our powder snow playground for the duration of our exciting 3-day program for beginners. 

In order to join this trip, you will need to have a red/black piste level in alpine skiing. Also, you will need to be able to carry out between 4 to 7 hours of skiing per day with a vertical drop of between 500m and 900m / D.

Every day we will follow a different program. On day 1, we will start by discussing expectations and ski experience. Then, we will begin with the basics during a first ascent to the refuge. In the afternoon, we will learn the use of safety equipment and then, if the weather allows, we will enjoy a short route around the refuge to reach the Grand Crétet. On day 2, we will learn conversion, skinning, effort management, initiation to snowmaking and mapping. Then we will enjoy ski touring in the loop around the Dzonfié / 700M D +. Finally, on day 3, we will head to the awe-inspiring summit of Quermoz / 500M D +.

So, are you ready for an exciting 3-day ski touring program in the Alps? Then book your place and join us!

We also offer a 5-day splitboarding and snowboarding program in Chamonix!

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.
