Note:
The 5-day program may be adjusted based on snow conditions, weather, and participants’ skill levels. The ski tours do not present significant technical challenges (daily elevation gain of approximately 700-1,600 m), though some short sections near the summits may require crampons, and the use of ski crampons (rampant) will be frequent. Participants should also be adaptable to group living and meal preparation, as we will be staying in large houses with shared spaces.
