Freeride & ski touring
Powder below the north face, glacier tours from the Jungfraujoch: off the piste, experience and equipment are what count.
The Jungfrau region is a dream for freeriders and ski tourers – and it is high-alpine terrain. Anyone leaving the secured pistes needs avalanche knowledge, the right equipment and ideally a mountain guide.
We advise you on skis, clothing and safety gear – and service your touring skis so they grip on hard snowfields.
What we have for you
