Description
Join me on this 7-day Berner Oberland ski tour for advanced skiers!
Located in the magestic Swiss alps, the Berner Oberland is one of Switzerland’s most diverse regions. Famous for its spectacular mountains and massive glaciers, this 7-day ski tour in Berner Oberland will be the ultimate ski adventure you can find in Switzerland.
Our meeting point will be in the amazing Swiss ski resort of Grindelwald at 1034 meters. From here, we will take a train up to the Jungfraujoch where you will discover Europe’s highest railway station at 3,463 m above sea level. Definitely one of Europe’s top places to visit!
During the days to come we will be climbing the different peaks along the way, like the Finsteraarhorn at 4273 meters, the highest peak in the Bernese Alps. Or skiing down the amazing Ewigschneefeld glacier, one of the three main arms of the Aletsch Glacier.
At night, we will be able to enjoy the amazing local food that will be served in the different huts. After a long and exhausting day of intense skiing, nothing better than a cozy bed to rest.

Keep in mind that this adventure will be highly challenging as well as physically demanding. Having an excellent physical condition is mandatory for all participants.
Also, all participants need to be strong skiers (PSIA level 9) as this is an advanced 7-day ski tour. Additionally, I would also advise all participants to bring ski touring equipment for this kind of ski trip.

What people are saying about ES Adventure Guides
Peter
This was a great trip and Explore Share made finding the right trip super easy. Our guide was personable, extremely knowledgeable, and experienced and willing to teach us the skills we would have needed to climb the Matterhorn. Unfortunatly, the conditions were not right to climb so our guide recemmended another trip which was still a great experience and lots of fun.
Emma
Very user friendly platform with timely responses from Explore Share representatives. The trip itself with Tom from Alps Adventures was awesome and ensure that we had an experience that was 100% what we wanted. Recommend both the platform and the guide. Thanks to all for arranging and delivering so well.

I had am amazing time during the 1-day off-piste training course at Hoch-Ybrig. Urs, our main mountain guide, was very helpful in answering my queries before the course, and Lupe from explore-share was helpful in selecting the course. We had 3 groups under Urs, Mario and Patrick, and I was in the group with Patrick. He gave us a lot of nice tips and individualized video analysis. He made a special effort to convey everything in English, since I don't know German. All the participants were very helpful and friendly too! The course is good value for money as skis are included for the weekend in the course price.
