Guided Off-Piste Skiing in the Chamonix Valley
|
The Chamonix Valley is world-famous for its off-piste skiing, and for good reason. From hidden tree runs to steep couloirs to the world famous Vallée Blanche, the terrain here is as varied as it is exciting. Whether you’re looking for long, flowing powder descents or challenging technical lines, Chamonix delivers some of the best skiing experiences in the Alps.
Exploring off-piste with an IFMGA Mountain Guide gives you the freedom to focus on the fun, knowing the safety, route-finding, and local knowledge are all taken care of. Every day is different — the weather, the snow, and where we go — and that’s part of the adventure. When you join us for guided off-piste skiing, you’ll discover the quieter corners of the valley, ski memorable lines, and enjoy everything that makes Chamonix the heart of alpine skiing. |

I skied the Vallée Blanche with Caspar and had the most amazing day of skiing I've ever experienced! He picked out lines in the fresh powder that felt challenging but manageable for me, and made sure the whole day was safe and fun. Thank you for the best day! Louise S.
WHERE SHOULD I BASE MYSELF?
Chamonix is the perfect base for off piste skiing. From here we can easily access all the lift systems in the Chamonix Valley, Saint Gervais, Les Contamines, and of course, ski the Vallée Blanche.
WHEN CAN I go off-piste skiing?
It's always conditions dependent, but the off-piste ski season usually lasts from January to May.
WHAT EXPERIENCE DO I NEED?
To make the most of your time here you should be confident skiing red runs in variable snow and in good style. You should also have good physical fitness to be able to ski long runs in variable conditions and on back to back days.
