GET TO KNOW DEEP POWDER IN OSTTIROL
Off to the backcountry! It’s here, in the untouched and pristine powder snow far away from the slopes, that the real enjoyment of skiing truly begins for many. Set to the backdrop of the breathtaking East Tyrolean mountains, I am able to offer freeride courses for kids and adults alike, given they have the relevant experience and competence level in on-piste skiing. That given, previous experience in off piste skiing is not a requirement, and am more than happy to be with you in your first excursion into the deep powder or variable terrain of the off piste. In the beginners courses we will focus on the basics required to build a safe and enjoyable foundation for off piste skiing, whilst exploring special off piste routes in the Zettersfeld family ski area. I am also able to offer courses tailored to more advanced freeriders, helping them hone their skills in difficult terrain or simply guide them through the various ski areas of East, South and North Tyrol on request!
Important: In order to participate in the Freeride courses, each participant must bring with them the relevant avalanche safety equipment!
