Ski touring and splitboard
Climbing with skins and riding down in fresh snow, far from the ski area.
Ski touring on skis, splitboard on a board: you climb with skins and come down in fresh snow, on slopes far from the ski area. Like freeride, we announce these outings during the season, right after a snowfall.

What people say
5 out of 5 stars
Io e due amici abbiamo deciso di provare il freeride per la prima volta e ci siamo affidati a questa scuola di snowboard. Non potevamo fare scelta migliore! Il nostro istruttore, Guido, è stato semplicemente fantastico: competente, paziente e super appassionato. Ci ha portato in posti incredibili, tra neve fresca e boschetti spettacolari, facendoci scoprire il lato più autentico e selvaggio della montagna. Non è stato semplice, essendo la nostra prima esperienza fuori pista, ma Guido ci ha rassicurati e guidati con grande professionalità, dandoci consigli utili e aiutandoci a migliorare la tecnica. Un mix perfetto di adrenalina e divertimento.

Before you sign up
The early-bird rate. It isn’t refundable, because the discount is tied to booking early. If you can’t come, you can move your booking to another date on the calendar and keep the rate. If we’re the ones who don’t confirm the outing, you get a full refund. The refund minus the 10% charge applies instead to lessons booked at the full rate and cancelled within the terms.
Off-piste. Off-piste outings take place outside the ski area, on ungroomed terrain that rescue vehicles struggle to reach. Carrying avalanche safety equipment (shovel, transceiver and probe) is compulsory by law.
Your level. If you’re not sure whether you’re intermediate or advanced, have a look at the Ski and snowboard levels page.
The other experiences. Discover the area, freeride, ski touring and splitboard are all on the Experiences page.
All the prices for the season are in Prices; cancellations, minimum numbers and the other conditions are in the Terms and conditions.
