Experience the Vallee Blanche in Chamonix! Ski Guiding with professional mountain guides. Ideal for skiers or snowboarders

  

The famous Vallée Blanche is a total off-piste ski route!  A 23km route including 19km on glaciers, a vertical descent of 2800m and a variety of terrain.
Starting at the top of Aiguille du midi 3800m, the route continues along an unmarked route through the peaks of the Mont Blanc Massif, glaciers and the wilderness before finishing in the Chamonix valley.
 
This is one of those memorable "ski-life" experiences that you will never forget !
Before the skiing starts you will be harnessed by rope with your Mountain Guide UIAGM to descend the narrow snow ridge equipped with fixed ropes on both sides to a wide plateau where you can put your skis/snowboard on.
There are a number of different skiable routes on the Vallée Blanche, the classic easy route through to the most challenging! Your guide will select the route according to the technical level of the group and the snow conditions of the day.
To ski or snowboard the Vallée Blanche is a full day experience with a short stop for a picnic or a traditional mountain lunch at the cosy mountain hut which is in the middle of the downhill. You will be accompanied by a UIAGM fully qualified Mountain Guide who, from his professional experience and local knowledge, will choose the appropriate route enabling you to enjoy the magnificent scenery in maximum security.
The Vallée Blanche is skiable from end of  December to May, depending on the weather and snow conditions.
  
Minimum Technical Level Required:
 Skiers or Snowboarders must be able to comfortably ski red pistes, control their speed, sideslip, ski at a safe speed and follow in tracks. Having an off-piste skiing experience is better! Although most part of the easiest "classic route” resembles a blue run the snow conditions of the day will determinate the difficulty.
The spring season (March & April) is more adapt to those with less skiing experience as we typically experience spring snow conditions making the route much easier to ski.
Technical level: intermediate to expert riders with good skills and physical condition.
Equipment: we recommend the new free-ride fatskis, which allow you to ski easily, with more facilities and less fatigue, even in difficult, irregular snow conditions. It is possible to rent them and it's recommended to book them ahead of time
We provide all security harness, avalanche transceiver, and all other necessary security equipment.


Special Privilege: To maximise the time skiing, we book for you priority access at the cable car so that you don’t have to wait a long time for free places in the cable car during the busy periods.
Bad weather: In the case of bad weather for "Vallée Blanche" skiing your Guide will suggest an alternative off-piste day on a smaller glaciers like the one found in the Grands-Montets resort.
