The 3 Valleys’ Best Ski Touring Itineraries<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

Ski Touring is a fantastic way to discover the wild side of Les 3 Vall\u00e9es<\/a>. Striking out under your own steam, far from the ski lifts, you get up close and personal with the majestic mountain terrain of this beautiful region. <\/p>\n

This is a big mountain environment and the incline can make you work hard at times, but there’s a huge sense of satisfaction when you reach your goal. You’ve earnt your turns. It’s time to pack your skins away, drop in to some untouched powder and enjoy carving your own lines down huge vertical drop back to the resort.<\/p>\n

Most ski touring day trips start with a meeting at around 9:00am at the lift station. Once your gear is checked, the conditions are assessed and the itinerary is decided upon, you head up to the edge of the pisted area of the resort.<\/p>\n

After an initial off-piste descent, it’s time to put your skins on and start the climb to a col or summit adapted to your fitness level and skiing ability. There’ll be plenty of opportunity to take photos and a stop for lunch will be built into the day. You can expect to be back down in the resort before 4:30pm.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced off-piste skier, the itinerary will be tailored to your fitness and objectives. However, to get the most out of your ski-touring trip you need to be comfortable skiing red pisted runs and fit enough to climb at least 500 m of vertical ascent.<\/p>\n
