Personalised guiding away from the hustle and bustle
Experience a ski tour on the Arlberg in the most personal way: with a state-certified ski guide who knows the area like the back of his hand. Instead of disappearing into the crowd, you will be travelling with us away from the hustle and bustle - where ideal slopes, quiet valleys and breathtaking views await.
Whether it's your first ski tour in the region or you're an experienced ski tourer, we'll organise the day according to your wishes, your ability and the current conditions. For us, personalised guiding means catering to you - with safety, experience and a passion for the mountains.
Why go on a ski tour on the Arlberg with a ski guide?
- Best local knowledgeYour guide not only knows the classics, but also hidden routes and secret descents - adapted to the snow, weather and avalanche conditions.
- Away from the crowdsWe avoid overcrowded routes and take you to the quieter corners of the Arlberg.
- More descent - less ascent: Thanks to the strategically used cable cars, we save valuable metres in altitude on the ascent - and invest them in fantastic descents, mostly through powder or firn.
Meeting point:At 08:45 am at the valley station of the cable cars in Lech, Zürs, Stuben or St. Anton. We can also pick you up from your hotel by prior arrangement. After a safety briefing and a discussion of the planned programme, we set off. On the way we stop for a break, either at a hut or in the backcountry. The ski tour ends between 14:00 and 15:00.
The exact programme for the day depends on the snow, weather and avalanche conditions and the personal requirements of the participants.

- Guided tour by a state-certified ski guide (5-6 hours incl. breaks)
