Each winter we offer a great selection of the best hut-to-hut ski touring in the European Alps and beyond. The Alps are famous
for their high-altitude trails and rightly so: from the Julian Alps in the East to the Mont Blanc massif in the West, the varied
terrain, easy access and stunning panoramas are truly unsurpassed. The beauty of ski touring is that even in poor snow years -
such as 2007 - the higher trails offer great touring throughout the season. The excellent network of high altitude mountain huts
offer basic accommodation with breakfast and evening meal and allow us to ski with light packs.
Ski Touring is best enjoyed by strong off-piste skiers with good fitness and stamina.
