Jean-Marc Kaufmann - High mountain guide

Home

Here is a mountain range where you will witness vertical rock faces and welcoming forests, gentle slopes and impressive couloirs, reassuring pistes and remote routes, soaring cable cars and skinning in untracked snow. However one thing remains constant - the warm welcome and outstanding accommodation.

This week is particularly recommended for those who are relatively new to days of ski touring.

Each day there are short tours that take us to magnificent routes hidden amongst spectacular surroundings. At the end of the day, we return to the hotel enjoying off-piste descents linked by the lifts and ski runs.

We are based in a very welcoming and comfortable 4-star hotel in the small village of Arraba. It is centrally located and is therefore a great base for exploring the Dolomites.
