As a beginner, you have never really been off-piste. Here you will be guided from the very beginning.
As an advanced skier you have already been in contact with powder snow, the "powder virus" has caught you and you want to expand your experience.
As an Expert, you'll draw lines in steep terrain with solid experience in snow and tour planning, and you'll want to explore new terrain as well as exciting descents.
Services & Prices
Is there anything more beautiful than the peace and solitude of untouched deep snow? But unfortunately, deep snow is always accompanied by the danger of avalanches. In such situations every second counts and a functioning rescue chain as well as the correct handling of probe, shovel and avalanche transceiver can save lives. It is therefore all the more important to be prepared for emergencies and to regularly refresh your knowledge.
Our avalanche course pursues this goal and is aimed at both beginners and those who want to refresh their knowledge. But don't worry - we will not only focus on theory, but also go on a ski tour, so of course the enjoyment will not be neglected.
