Explore intermediate off-piste ski courses. Improve your skills and learn about avalanche safety whilst exploring secret spots in world-famous ski resorts.
This course is perfect for skiers who feel comfortable navigating moderate off-piste slopes and have some experience in untracked terrain. If you can link turns in light powder and like to stick to easier runs, this course will help you develop the skills you need to tackle tougher off-piste descents safely.
