As with all mountain activities, there’s a progression in ski touring, starting on short “side country” tours with only half an hour of skinning, before moving on up to multi-day hut-to-hut tours such as the famous High Level Route from Chamonix to Zermatt. Outside the Alps, you can travel further afield with a British Mountain Guide to venues such as Northern Norway, Kashmir in India or Kamchatka in Russia.
Varied Programs
If you’re looking for a gentle introduction to ski touring, many guides run “ski safaris”, using a combination of ski lifts, helicopters, taxis and skinning to complete a journey through the mountains, also known as “touring without tears”! At the other end of the scale, ski mountaineering combines ski touring with alpinism to access some of the wildest skiing on the planet.
