Pitztal freeriding with a ski guide

Difficulty:

High alpine adventure on the roof of Tyrol

Experience the Pitztal from its most impressive side: freeriding with a state-certified ski guide will immerse you in alpine terrain that has long been known as "Little Chamonix" among experts. Steep gullies, open glacier slopes and endless lines down to the valley floor - the Pitztal offers the best conditions for ambitious freeriders.

Short ascents - long descents
Effizienz trifft Erlebnis: Dank Liftunterstützung und kurzen Aufstiegen konzentrieren wir uns auf das Wesentliche – die Abfahrt. Mit einem erfahrenen Skiführer an deiner Seite findest du die besten Lines des Tages, angepasst an Verhältnisse, Wetter und Könnensniveau.

For advanced & experts
The high alpine terrain around the Pitztal Glacier requires skiing technique, experience and a good level of fitness. In return, you will be rewarded with a real deep snow experience, mighty vertical metres and an unforgettable day in the wild heart of the Alps.

Wichtig: Um das Maximum aus deinem Freeridetag im Pitztal herauszuholen, sind Freerideski mit Tourenbindung und Fellen Pflicht. Bei Fragen zur Ausrüstung kontaktiere uns gerne.

Meeting point:At 8.45 am at the valley station of the Pitztal Glacier cable car or the Rifflsee cable car. After a safety briefing and a discussion of the planned tour, we set off. On the way we stop off at a hut or restaurant in the valley. The freeride day ends at around 14:00.

Participation requirements

The high alpine terrain around the Pitztal Glacier requires skiing technique, experience and a good level of fitness. This is not beginner terrain for freeriding! You should have the stamina for five to six hours of skiing with breaks. To get to the exciting descents, you will also have to master ascents of 30 to 60 minutes and be free from giddiness.
