Ski Touring with a Guide

Backcountry skiing, randonee or ski touring. Call it what you want, but it’s lovely. This package in the Snasahögarna Mountains, which we call Triss i Toppar, long, beautiful tours are offered in what is probably Sweden’s most easily accessible area. The slope are mostly to the east, which means that when weather comes in from the west, the snow usually falls on the “correct” side of the mountain.
This tour suits you who feel that you can probably handle ski touring yourself, but still want to hang out with a guide who supports and shows the way. So it is not a course, although the guide can help if needed or teach some secret tricks. The focus here is the experience itself with good snow and fine peaks.

This tour is very suitable for groups of friends or families – let us know and we will arrange a date that suits you!

Preliminary program

Day 1
The first day we start with a little introduction to the days and the plan for the day. Then we quickly go through the equipment and do a workshop on avalanche rescue so that we feel ready for the coming days.

After that, we aim to move up above the tree line towards the first peak of the tour. We eat lunch on the road, maybe we sit down to get the sun in our face or it can be eaten quickly if the weather is a little more gloomy.

Day 2
Well rehearsed from yesterday, today’s adventure will be based on weather and avalanche forecast. After that, we aim for a peak a little further away, perhaps Sönner Tväråklump, which is a very nice ski mountain. On the way, we might take a small bonus ride to really maximize the trip. A ride that is often overlooked by most people but is actually one of the area’s best. After the tour, confidentiality applies regarding this!
Day 3
Last day and time for the Grande Finale. The area’s highest peak is one of the possible tours although we have some backup options as well. Here you get really large areas to cruise down and we aim to finish at 15-16 in the afternoon for those who may be starting their journey home.
