More and more people share the desire for outdoor activities in the wild, alpine nature. This is why we are happy to newly offer ski touring courses for beginners. In a few days and without prior knowledge you will learn the basics and the right technique to safely enjoy this fascinating alpine sport.

These modules await you:

  • Alpine basic knowledge
  • Tour planning
  • Ascending and skiing techniques in open terrain
  • Handling of the LVS equipment (avalanche victim search device)
  • Rescue management

Our Arlberg region is an Eldorado for ski tourers. No matter if you like to leave behind the first meters in altitude by gondola or if you wish to conquer them straight from the valley on your touring skis: Here you will find easy-going tours to enjoy with only a few meters in altitude as well as real challenges with steep ascents lasting for hours that will push your limits. Depending on your personal skills and level of fitness, we offer three-day and five-day courses. The first day focuses on the most important topic: safety! In the days to follow, we will already be able to practice in the remote quietness of our breathtaking mountain scenery. Step by step and in accordance with your performance and capabilities, you will learn everything there is to know.

Our experienced guides are looking forward to safely leading you to the hidden highlights of the Arlberg mountains.
