Step in, skin up, ride the lines – right in the beating heart of the FreerideTestival.

Our Freetouring Tour is part of this unique event weekend and combines a true backcountry experience with the special atmosphere of the festival.

Together with our guides, we leave the ski resort behind and head into rewarding terrain and flowing descents. The focus is clearly on freeriding with a smart approach: solid decision-making, smart line choice, and maximum fun in the mountains. Everything related to safety, avalanche conditions, and technique is delivered hands-on and right when it matters – no classroom, just real learning in real terrain.​

What to expect

  • Guided freetouring with a strong focus on descents & flow
  • Routes and lines adapted to current conditions
  • Practical inputs on avalanche conditions, terrain assessment & decision-making
  • Tips on riding technique, uphill travel, and efficient handling
  • A shared experience with strong team spirit

In short: skin up to ride better.

The FreerideTestival – more than just skiing

Throughout the entire event weekend, you can test the latest freeride equipment from leading brands free of charge – much of it already from next season. From skis and snowboards to helmets, backpacks, and avalanche safety gear: you try the newest setups exactly where they belong – out in the terrain.

In addition, workshops, safety sessions, and side events ensure that everyone from first-timers to experienced riders gets their money’s worth. After a full day in the mountains, the legendary afterhour awaits with music, drinks, and freeride talks – the perfect place to wind down together and share stories from the day.

Requirements

  • Confident off-piste skiing or riding in powder up to approx. 30°
  • Personal touring or splitboard equipment (uphill mode, suitable skins, helmet)
  • Safety equipment: avalanche transceiver, probe & shovel
