After the challenge of the ascent, nothing is more rewarding than breathing in the crisp high-altitude air, silently admiring the pristine panoramas around you, and preparing for the adrenaline and absolute freedom that only a descent on fresh snow can offer.
💡 TIPS FROM OUR ALPINE GUIDES
#1 Choose a tour suitable for your abilities and physical preparation: Ski mountaineering is an activity that requires physical effort, concentration, attention, and knowledge of the mountains.
