Freeride
Freeride in Courmayeur with the instructors of Scuola Sci Monte Bianco. By lift or by helicopter.
Mont Blanc has a side you can’t see from the groomed runs. Valleys, couloirs and untouched slopes that most skiers will never reach. We know it well: our instructors have been taking people there for years and know exactly where to go based on the snow, the season and your level. Freeriding isn’t simply skiing off-piste: it means entering the real mountain, silent and untracked, with someone who knows it like the back of their hand
Every route is different. Your ski instructor will help you choose the right one.
There’s no one-size-fits-all route. Some want their first time off-piste without any risk, some are looking for a narrow, steep couloir, others want a full day chasing the best snow wherever it is. Each experience is a different way of enjoying Mont Blanc: choose the one that suits you, or write to us and we’ll help you find the right starting point.
