Zermatt Adventure (off-piste skiing /
intro. to touring / backcountry skiing)
What better way to discover the region than 6
days of off-piste tours and glacier descents.
Each day we will make use of the valley’s extensive lift system,
together with touring kit to pack more skiing into our off-piste
adventures.
Who’s it for: for skiers with a sense of
adventure who want to access the mountains as soon as possible.
