Big Mountain Freetouring in Pitztal

Big Mountain Freetouring Camp - Pitztal

Difficulty:

Steep lines, wide slopes & boundless powder

Are you looking for that real big mountain feeling away from the crowds? Then our freetouring camp in Pitztal is just the thing for you. The high alpine terrain around Austria's highest glacier is not called "Little Chamonix" for nothing: short ascents, steep couloirs, huge north-facing slopes - and descents that lead straight down into the valley. This is where Freeride and ski tour an experience in a class of its own.

Your freeride adventure with an experienced ski guide

Together with our state-certified ski guides, who know the area like the back of their hand, you will explore the best lines in the Pitztal. Thanks to local expertise, we find the best conditions every day - and guide you safely through the complex terrain of rock, glacier and powder gullies.

Short hike-ups, long runs - that's the principle of our Freetouring Camp.

The camp is aimed at all those who already have experience in open terrain and want to take the next step: bigger lines, more vertical metres, real big mountain terrain.

You should be able to ski safely in deep snow, master hairpin bends and enjoy technical terrain. Your stamina should be sufficient for 5-6 hours of skiing per day including breaks. Ascents of 45-90 minutes on touring skis are no problem for you.
