I had a question as to how extreme the Skiing was, here's Saskia's answer who organises this trip:



Extreme exemplifies the word relative!!

The guide will assess the level of the group and conditions before deciding on the adventure.

If you are looking for a particular level of extreme, let us know and we will get back to you with the expectations of the rest of the group. It will be extreme for the intermediate to advanced skier who ski mostly on or near the piste.

The 60m rapel we are refering to is the Salles routes - again there are many options/levels for the decent to the ice fall.



Hope that helps! Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any further enquiries.



All the best, Saskia
