Ski mountaineering coaching course | Learning and practising in the high mountains
Being out and about together and benefiting and learning from the mountain guide - great tours and summits, planned and realised together.
Monte Rosa
Have you already undertaken your first high-altitude ski tours and would like to learn and practise even more? Then you've come to the right place! On this ski mountaineering coaching course, we will be travelling together in the high mountains, planning the route and tours together and then tackling them together. Decisions are made in the group and so we can learn from each other and benefit from the input and expertise of the mountain guide. The aim is to undertake great and exciting tours and to learn and apply important aspects of ski mountaineering beforehand. Depending on the needs of the participants, we will also train technical aspects such as crevasse rescue with pulleys or fixed ropes for steeper passages, handling and techniques with ice axes and crampons or rope handling and belaying on short ropes. In this course you will become fit for ski mountaineering and learn and experience ski mountaineering in the high mountains!
