Guided Ski tours | Arlberg

Ski touring with a Ski Guide

The Arlberg - the world-famous deep snow Mecca - has a quieter side to offer. The impressive mountain world around St. Anton, Stuben, Lech and Zürs can be explored on touring skis on less frequented trails. I will guide you to the peaks with the best views and the most beautiful descents in the Arlberg region. Thanks to the lift facilities, part of the ascent can be shortened before we dive into the mountain solitude.

Experience the winter: Guided ski tour in St. Anton - Stuben - Lech Zürs

The Arlberg offers a wide range of ski touring options. There are numerous peaks and ascents to choose from in the Lechquellengebirge, the Lechtal Alps and the Verwall. Both ski tour beginners and advanced skiers will get their money's worth here. As a ski guide on the Arlberg, I don't just keep an eye on the current weather and avalanche situation. My tour planning is always based on the snow conditions so that we can maximise our downhill skiing enjoyment. And of course, the experience of nature comes first when ski touring.

I look forward to your individual request!

From ski touring beginners to experts - at the Arlberg there is something for everyone. Your private ski guide will customise the day to your wishes and previous experience.

The minimum requirement for off-piste skiing is safe, parallel skiing in long turns on black Slopes. You should also have enough stamina for an hour and a half to two hours of ascent and the subsequent descent. 

If you want to go on more challenging tours, you should be free from giddiness, be able to master hairpin bends, ideally have experience in using crampons and crampons and have the stamina for a three to four-hour ascent.

I assume that you are familiar with the Emergency equipment (avalanche transceiver, shovel, probe). We can practise together before the tour and brush up on your avalanche emergency skills.
