Description

Vermont is a great location for skiing in the winter months, and Stowe is one of the best spots for the sport. Going off-piste or backcountry skiing is a great way to ski and explore the all natural surroundings**. Our intro to backcountry skiing in Stowe is perfect for adventurers and nature lovers that want to take their skiing out of the usual boundaries and into the wild!**

This intro to backcountry skiing is two hours long. During the two hours, we will cover some basic backcountry techniques and then put them to practice in some of the gorgeous Ranch Valley landscapes. These include forests and rugged slopes. Consequently, we will be able to combine the two aspects of this sport: skiing skills and discovery of natural environments!

Ideally, although backcountry experience is not necessary, we do require some prior skiing knowledge and experience. However, we will be there every step of the way to guide you and ensure your safety. Also, we will cover specific techniques that will make the excursion educational as well as enjoyable. We will also focus on building your confidence and familiarity dealing with unknown terrain.

Are you looking to take your skiing to the next level? Would you like to try some off-piste fun? Then book your place now and join us on this short intro to backcountry skiing in Stowe. We will be happy to share our skills and show you the stunning landscapes in the region!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
