Ski guiding

The quiet side of the Portes du Soleil

Half or full day

Your legs decide

Conditions-led

Route set on the morning

Up to six

One guide, your group

The shape of the day

Set by the snow

First lift

Your guide checks the report and your legs, then picks the aspect that skied best overnight.

The middle

Linked valleys, empty pistes and the off-piste your level allows — technique coached as you go.

Last run

Back over the hill in time for the sun terrace — with tomorrow’s plan already sketched.

Know before you go

Off-piste kit Bring your own transceiver, shovel and probe — we can point you to good hire in town.

Level needed Confident parallel on reds — we build everything above that around you.

When conditions change We go where the snow is best that morning.

“Without doubt my skiing developed over the course of the week — culminating in some challenging, but very enjoyable, off piste skiing.”

Ian S. — guided, one week
