Ortler, Suedtyrol·12 - 16 January 2025
Ortler Freetouring Ski Camp
Three days of Freetouring (Freeride and some ascents with ski skins) between the Oetztaler Alpen, Passo Resia and Ortles.
Overview
The essence of Freetouring is to use ski lifts combined with skins to reach less frequented routes with the best snow. The goal is not to reach a summit like in ski mountaineering, but to use our strength to take us to the top of the most beautiful lines to ski. We will use ski lifts to take us to altitude; in some cases the descent lines will not require further ascent, while in other cases we will face a further ascent or a crossing, (these generally never exceeding 500 meters in altitude) to reach the best terrain.

Medium
This tour is suitable for an audience of athletes with a good training base and who want to try to challenge themselves 3 days of ski touring with an average maximum ascent of 500 meter per day
