Ski mountaineering
Ski mountaineering is the most wonderful way to get away from the crowded piste and experience the mountains in their winter clothes.
Alun is running one ski mountaineering trip for 2009.
Cost £500.00 (guiding fee and expenses - for inclusions and exclusions see below download)
The Haute Route via Verbier is by far the most popular version of the Haute Route, The skiing is excellent, with every day offering at least a few good opportunities for some fun downhill. Though there is some technical terrain, for the most part the route is reasonably straightforward and difficult days are interspersed with easier ones. Additionally, the Verbier version of the tour offers a few more options for poor weather with some stages (but not all) practicable in marginal weather. It remains, however, a serious challenge, and all the potential difficulties (and fantastic rewards) of high alpine touring can be found.
