Ski touring and splitboard

Skin up where the lifts can't take you.

With skins and a little help from the lifts, you reach slopes far from the ski area, where the mountains are at their most authentic. The climb is all chat and views; the descent is pure joy. Your instructor is beside you every step of the way.

What to expect

  • The briefing before you set off

    A kit check, so nothing's missing, then the transceiver checkpoint, to make sure every device is on and working.

  • The climb

    You'll learn kick turns and how to glide your skins smoothly over the snow, while you take in the views and chat with your instructor.

  • The descent

    Your reward for the climb: untracked slopes and the silence of the mountains.

  • A small group

    Up to 5 people, with skiers and splitboarders in separate groups. You can join on your own too: you'll find good company in the group.

Outings follow the snow

Ski touring and splitboard outings aren't planned in advance: we announce them during the season, whenever we judge the conditions to be good. Dates go up on Bee Bee Board; if you want to hear straight away, we'll message you on WhatsApp.

Ski touring and splitboard kit

If you don't have the kit, we'll point you to the right people.

  • Avalanche transceiver, shovel and probe

    Required: bring your own.

  • Touring skis or splitboard, and skins

    Bring your own.

  • Touring boots

    For skiers; splitboarders can use their usual snowboard boots.

  • Rucksack

    Roomy and comfortable for the climb; an avalanche airbag pack is even better.

Booking

Good to know

Your level. If you're not sure, check the Ski & snowboard levels page.

All this season's prices are on the Prices page; cancellations, minimum group size and the other conditions are in our Terms & conditions.

Where to find the dates. You can see and book the available dates on Bee Bee Board: the website doesn't have a calendar. The FAQs below point you there too.

The other experiences. Ski safari, freeride, ski touring and splitboard are all on the Experiences page.
