Powder skiing

Ski safely and confidently in deep snow and alpine terrain

The Ziller Valley with its variety of off piste skiing in mid-winter and the Hintertux glacier with its snow guarantee are ideal areas for our deep-snow skiing courses. The goal of the course is to ski safely and confidently in deep snow and alpine terrain. Lifts are taking us back to the top so we can concentrate completely on powder skiing. This will give us more opportunities to do technique exercises, quickly getting you close to your goal of enjoying glorious deep-snow skiing.

FAQs

How does a freeride day work?

We start at the Mountain Sports Alpine School at 08:30. Meeting up and distribution of avalanche equipment - ABS backpack, shovel, probe, avalanche transceiver. We will choose the skiing area according to the avalanche report and head off for the slopes. Your mountain guide will of course brief your safety equipment before the first descent. You ski until your feet get tired. You can take a lunch break in one of the many beautiful mountain huts. At the end of the day, you will hopefully have enjoyed many beautiful descents in untracked powder. To get the most out of the whole day, it is particularly important that you assess your skill level correctly.

What kind of ski should I use for a freeride tour?

Freeride skis with big rockers in the tip and a flat tail are good for more control in deep powder. We recommend a width of at least 100mm below the binding. We will be happy to advise you and you can rent the right pair of skis together with your mountain guide in the morning in one of our partner shops.
