Discover ski touring in Queyras or Ubaye

Description

Throughout the winter, I offer ski touring discovery outings in the Queyras or Ubaye mountains departing from Guillestre or the surrounding resorts (Vars, Risoul, Ceillac, etc.).

The day's program includes:

• discovery of ski touring equipment,
• use of the avalanche beacon,
• easy ascent (on paths or in mountain pastures),
• progression techniques (making conversions, using climbing wedges, etc.)
• and a panoramic summit!

The descent route is generally chosen by the participants.

If you already have a bit of experience in the activity and would like to improve, I also offer ski touring improvement outings in the Queyras and Ubaye regions, as well as this mini ski touring raid in the Hautes-Alpes.

You can also come and work on your downhill technique during an off-piste and freeride ski session in Val Thorens, Savoie.
