For us skiing is skiing off-piste. On all our trips are you always with a certified UIAGM/IFMGA mountain guide, in a small group of skiers who are all there for the same reason. To ski off piste and enjoy the mountains on all different sides.
We often get questions about the best off-piste in the Alps. Where is the best snow? Which is our favorite resort?
