Back country ski guides

Private ski or snowboard guiding for up to six people - on and off-piste

Location: Bourg-Saint-Maurice
Featured in: Mountain Guides

A private ski or snowboard session for all ability levels – on and off-piste. It’s all about fun, improvement and discovering new off piste terrain.

Guided off-piste and touring are a great way to experience the back country with an experienced, UIAGM mountain guide or instructor.

You’ll encounter a variety of snow conditions and terrain; from powder fields, to tree runs, allowing you to improve your off-piste skills. Their packages offer something for every ability so you’ll experience the back country at your own pace. Their UIAGM mountain guides or instructors will offer technique pointers, guiding and simulation avalanche rescue training to ensure you’re fully prepared for your Experience.

Split boarding has become hugely popular in recent years due to exciting new product development: making boards lighter, stronger and easier to use. The possibilities of travelling into the back country have been transformed, with snowboarders now able to access terrain that was previously hard to reach. These courses offer snowboarders a unique experience by heading deeper into the back country whilst learning important back country skills.

Their guided days are for private groups of 1-6 people and includes safety kit (ABS packs are additional).
