Description
For this wonderful heliskiing trip, one of our guides would like to take you into the Tarentaise valley in the heart of the French Alps. This beautiful place is well known as a result of famous ski resorts like Val d'Isere and Tignes. It also offers some truly breathtaking views of the incredible Mont Blanc and Monte Rosa massifs. It also offers some amazing skiing as well!
We will depart from La Thuile, and from there, we will make our way south to the Tarentaise valley. Once there, you will have the chance to admire it from above before experiencing it from below. After landing, we we will use the La Rosiere lifts, which will give you access some exciting skiing runs!
The powder throughout the valley is wonderful, as are the slopes. And regardless if you prefer skiing around the Christmas season, or prefer skiing in the early spring, the Tarentaise valley has you covered. All we require is that participants are in good physical condition and have prior off-piste skiing experience. Other then that, you are good to go.
More than a trip, this day long adventure is more like a tour of the Tarentaise valley. And once there, we will make sure you have access to the best descents in the area. So if that sounds like the kind of thrill you want to experience in the French Alps, just send us a request.
We can also lead you on a 1 day, 5 flight heliskiing trip in La Thuile, in the Aosta valley of Italy.

We had a fantastic day with Alesandro in La Thuile. It had not snowed much for over 3 weeks, so he recommended that we go Ski Touring, and we managed to find fresh tracks. Could not have gone better!

Just have to say what an excellent week I had in Val Formazza last week with Heli Guides. Our guide Alberto was great and was able to find us great lines to ski as well as being great company and possessing a great nose for a fine bottle of wine. The hotel we stayed in - the Walser Schtuba - was great with comfortable rooms and top notch meals and wine. You could not ask for more after a great days skiing than to come back and relax in this great hotel. I was most impressed with all aspects of Heli Guides / Guide Monterosa and there willingness to make your holiday truly memorable.

It was just amazing. The guide was both fun and serious. Reassuring and very competent. The helicopter company was great too and the pilot (Alessandro) was super fast.

Heliskiing in Courmayeur is just amazing. The sceneries were stunning, the snow was perfect, we were along in the middle of nowhere. Organisation was impeccable, with Ode taking care of us right from the beginning. We did not wait at all and helicopter picked us up immediately for the first ride. Alessandro the pilot was super kind and helpful. We did two drops on two neighboring glaciers, 5 minutes helicopter ride. Only thing is that the downhill could have been longer, but that is due to the fact that wind conditions were extreme and hence only limited choice of dropping areas. I highly recommend this trip!
