We propose you a a heliskiing adventure right next the highest peaks of the Alps. In addition, you'll enjoy spectacular ski descents through shining ice and untouched snowfields laying below the vertiginous slopes of the area.

Courmayeur-Mont Blanc offers the perfect lands for this kind of activities. That is because it has gentle terrains with wide and open slopes.

We ideally work with groups of 4 participants per guide. All our guests must be safe off-piste skiers. A good fitness level is also mandatory. For group bookings we can take care individually of the group level.

As for the itinerary, we will meet at 9.00 AM at our office in the Entreves hangar (at the Val Veny cable car station). You'll have a welcome meeting and a short presentation of the program for the day. After that, we'll take the Val Veny cable and start skiing in Courmayeur area.

When we are in the Col Checrouit we'll check the skiing level of the participants. Here, the helicopter will pick us up and the guide will choose the best ski decent depending on the snow and group conditions. If you wish, you can individually make an additional helicopter flight.

Finally, we will fly back to the starting point and we'll finish the day with a good glass of wine and some Italian food.

What people are saying about -Guide Monterosa

It was just amazing. The guide was both fun and serious. Reassuring and very competent. The helicopter company was great too and the pilot (Alessandro) was super fast.

Amazing experience ! Very nice guide, focused on security and carring his clients

Just have to say what an excellent week I had in Val Formazza last week with Heli Guides. Our guide Alberto was great and was able to find us great lines to ski as well as being great company and possessing a great nose for a fine bottle of wine. The hotel we stayed in - the Walser Schtuba - was great with comfortable rooms and top notch meals and wine. You could not ask for more after a great days skiing than to come back and relax in this great hotel. I was most impressed with all aspects of Heli Guides / Guide Monterosa and there willingness to make your holiday truly memorable.

Thank you for a great heliski day!!
