Ski touring the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt rates for many as a must do trip. The classic 120km route follows some of the most impressive alpine scenery and includes 6000m of ascent and of course, very rewarding descent.
Trips take place in March & April when the conditions are suitable.
These 6 day Chamonix backcountry courses are our most popular here in Chamonix. The course time is shared with one of our Elite Instructors, Derek Tate and Mountain Guide, Robbie Fenlon.
