Technik

No previous touring experience is required. However, you must be confident skiing or snowboarding off-piste in deep snow, wind crust, heavy snow, and other challenging conditions.

All our ski tours are open to splitboarders. However, a higher technical level is required on a splitboard because transitions, traverses and flat sections are generally more demanding than on touring skis.
