Description

The Aosta valley is full of beautiful areas that offer excellent skiing. And on this heliskiing trip, you will have the chance to experience the slopes and powder of one of the more beautiful areas in the valley, La Thuile.

Since this trip only involves a single helicopter flight, it is geared toward people who are new to heliskiing. Hence why we like to refer to it as a My First Heliski Day trip. However, I have no doubt that after this full day skiing experience you will be anxious to enjoy more flights in the future.

Throughout the day, you will have ample opportunity to admire the surrounding Alps, including the famous Mont Blanc mountain (4,810m). You will also be able to see the Grand Combin (4,314m) and the Monte Rosa range. Also, because this is a heliskiing trip, you will have a great deal of choice of where you wish to go and ski.

The possible locations the helicopter can take you include the following:

Miravidi
Mont Ouille
Pointe Lechaud
Testa del Ruitor
Les Vedettes
Becca Bianca

Our guides have years of experience in the Aosta valley, so we know the best places to go. And we will see to it that with our experience, we will make sure your heliski experience in La Thuile is unforgettable. Our only requirements are that participants are in good physical condition and have some prior off-piste skiing experience because you will be skiing up to 2000 vertical metres throughout the day.

So if you want to enjoy this amazing experience, please send us a request. We can't wait to guide you and show you the beauty and fun of La Thuile.

We also offer a similar 1 day, 1 flight heliskiing trip in Valgrisenche, which is also located in the gorgeous Aosta valley.

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!

Maxine

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.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

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.
