Description
Are you looking for a challenging program where you can learn and train? Then don’t hesitate to join me on this 5-day course in Austria. During this program, we’ll go from the piste to the off-piste terrain. This amazing area in the Alps will allow us to enjoy a fantastic snow terrain. It’s the ideal setting for training!
On day 1, we’ll meet at 5 pm in the hotel, have a trip briefing, and check the equipment. Then, on days 2 and 3, we’ll begin our training on the piste. After that, from day 4 onwards, we’ll move to off-piste terrains and practice what we’ve learned.
The contents of the course include avalanche awareness, off-piste skiing training, and video analysis. If you want to improve your skills and gain off-piste experience, then this course is for you.
Keep in mind that to take part in this program, it’s important to have a good skiing level on the piste. Also, you need to be physically fit.
Would you like to take part in this experience? Then get in touch with me by sending the request to book your place. I’m sure you won’t regret your choice!

Mountain Guide
I am in the mountains all year-round, either guiding a trip or exploring on my own. Mountain guiding is not only my profession and passion but also my inner calling. I am a qualified IFMGA mountain and ski guide.
In 2012, I established my mountaineering school "Mountains" with the motto: Quality guiding on snow, rock and ice. You can count on a low client to guide ratio, reliable gear and high quality programs led by our talented team of guides. We are not adrenaline junkies - we put safety first and strive to meet and exceed all of our clients' needs.
We take great pride in having more than 30% returning clients and would be thrilled to welcome you to our "Mountains" family during your next rock, snow or ice adventure!

What people are saying about Tal
Thank you! It was really fantastic! I learned a lot and will keep at it - I have to say that ice, especially mixed and dry, is almost more fun than rock. Thank you for the super week and the great hotel! See you soon!
Tal and Dave,Thank you both on a terrific week in Chamonix! I had a great time and really feel now that I learnt a lot from you during this time! Climb save and see you next year :)
Hi Tal, I had a wonderful trip -- thank you so much for being such an excellent guide! Definitely want to do it again. Frankly, not sure why I bothered to fly home at all...... Really really want to go back :) Best, Amber
