Description

If you are an experienced skier looking for a tour in the beautiful Piedmont, do not miss this opportunity in the Maira Valley!

Maira Valley is located in the Cuneo province of the Piedmont region, in Italy. It will be our ski tour kick-off point. Every day, we’ll head to a new destination in the area and enjoy the runs.

The meeting point of this tour will be Pensione Ceaglio, our accommodation in Marmora, a small village in Cuneo. We will settle in there, and then, the following days enjoy our skiing days.

This program offers plenty of different peaks to enjoy, such as Mont Chersogno (3,026 meters), Bric Boscasso (2,589 meters), Monte Giobert (2,439 meters), Monte Bodoira (2,747 meters), Monte Cervet (2,981 meters), and Monte Cassorso (2,776 meters), among others. These peaks belong to the Cottian Alps, located in the border area between Italy and France.

Because you will face 3-5 hour ascents and an elevation gain of around 1,300 meters you will need to be prepared for this tour**.** Consequently, you must have prior skiing experience and a very good fitness level. Of course, I will be there to help you on the way.

So, send your request to book this 1-week tour now and enjoy skiing through the beautiful peaks of the Alps. I will be happy to be your guide on this adventure!

If you want to enjoy ski touring in other sections of the Alps,then take a look at these programs in Tyrol and the Bernina Pass that I also lead.

Mountain Guide

IFMGA/IVBV Certified mountain, ski and canyoning guide, member of DAV and VDBS mountaineering and sport climbing teaching and training team. I’ve been part of the VDBS team for the formation and training of German mountain guides for 20 years.

I started climbing at the age of 17. Since 1987 I am certified mountain guide and a passion has become a profession. I live in Scharnitz / Tyrol and I am leader of the moutaineering school Alpenwelt Karwendel in Mittenwald.
Ice climbing in norway, skitouring in morocco, rock climbing in cuba or high mountains in the himalaya - I like it to explore new areas around the world. I led a DAV training expedition for talented young mountaineers in the Tian Shan mountain range with climbing Khan Tengri and did several expeditions to the karakorum mountains and the himalayas.

As a full-time mountain guide, I feel at home in the Karwendel and Wetterstein mountains as well as in the mountains and climbing areas worldwide. I am happy to accompany you as a guide to your desired goal!

What people are saying about Bernd

Olli

Better than I could ever have expected. Bernd was very skilled guide, able to smoothly adjust to my skill level and the conditions on the go. Very fiendly, easy to communicate with. Made my day extremely enjoyable and memorable.

Andrew

Bernd was an amazing guide! We had a great time doing a 10 pitch climb on the Alpspitze mountain, and some fun single pitch afterward. As I am a somewhat experienced climber, he was a wonderful guide who gave me the freedom and trust to lead pitches and to belay him. Bernd is an excellent and smart climber who was able to push me to do my best and provide an incredible experience, while being patient while I enjoyed climbing on limestone in the alps for the very first time!

Undine

Bernd is a great teacher and guide. My husband and I are so glad that we had him as first timers for ice climbing. Aside from being knowledgeable, he is a very kind, warm and genuine person.

Roni

The guide Bernd was terrific - very knowledgable, experienced and patient with our group of beginners. Even when the weather turned to the worse, he kept finding ways to make it enjoyable, safe and interesting for all of us. We had a great time. Communication with him prior to the trip was also very clear and easy. Highly recommended!

Alarik

Bernd is an extremely skilled mountain guide and I felt very safe on my climb with him. I will most surely book future trips with him!
