Ski touring in Iceland

The Trollaskagi or Troll Peninsula is located in northern Iceland, in the Akureyri region. it is an extraordinary land, made up of vast mountain areas which are highly interesting for ski mountaineering lovers: the altitudes are vaying from 800 to 1400 m asl, the average difficulties are BS level on the classic scale with BSA level variations and exciting couloirs for steep ski lovers . We have suggested some objectives, all of them with an easy road access and all of them profitable in terms of descent and panorama.

Monte Rosa Freeride

  •   04 - 06 January 2025
Monte Rosa is the temple of Freeride: wide lands, an infinite variety of slopes of different technical levels suitable for all, from the beginner to the steep skiing lover; modern ski lifts that allow the skier to fully enjoy the ski day. If it is true that the well-known “Monte Rosa Tour” is today partly affected by ski lifts, the modern Punta Indren lift station leads you in a short time up to an altitude of 3200 m and lets you reach the wide slopes to Gressoney (such as to Lys Valley) or to Alagna, throughout couloirs, glaciers, isolated valleys surrounded by steep sides.

Ski mountaineering in Patagonia

  •   Dates to be defined
Patagonia is "a magical land for mountaineers and travelers", quoted a beautiful book by S. Metzeltin and G. Buscaini. It couldn’t be otherwise, with its spaces, its lights, its orange granite towers. Our ski mountaineering trip in Patagonia offers a reinterpretation of the southern landscape so dear to the collective imagination: September occurs at the same time with the end of the southern winter and in Patagonia you will find very few people; even places like El Chalten, now devoted to international tourism, in this season is cleared out. This allows you to find those postcard views as they were until not many years ago. From Bariloche to El Chalten first you will ski among the colorful granite spires of Cerro Cathedral, then you will cross the mythical Carretera Austral: basically, you will descend from Bariloche to El Chalten along a notoriously spectacular route that runs from north to south the Chilean fjords. In this trip you will have the opportunity to make any exploratory ski mountaineering experiences (in a very real sense, because there you will have almost no activity reviews): however it will be a trip with unique views, that will allow you to return to Argentina through the pass of Chile Chico and then to El Chalten to ski in front of Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre. In order to carry out this travel project, we won’t make any hotel reservation during the middle part of the tour (despite having already identified and notified the available facilities) in order to have maximum freedom of movement and decide day by day where to stay overnight: a somewhat adventurous journey therefore, which will involve all participants in the creation of the program!
