Description

We are happy to invite you to a heliskiing weekend on the sunny side of the Monte Rosa.

During this weekend, we’ll overfly and ski in an amazing area which extends from the Matterhorn to the southeast side of Monte Rosa.

This stunning region has more than 20 landing sites, around 60 ski runs and a unique alpine scenery. In Monte Rosa everyone finds the perfect terrain and lives a different experience every new day.

From December to mid-March you can find here the best powder snow conditions. Ideally, each guide leads a group of no more than 4 guests. That allows us to offer a maximum of flexibility since every minute of your experience is vital to us.

All participants must be safe off-piste skiers in all snow conditions. It’s also mandatory to be fit enough to face pistes up to 6,000 vertical meters each day.

As for the hotel accommodation, we can suggest 3 comfortable and warm hotels: the Dufour, the Nordend or the Gletscher.

The 3-star Dufour Hotel is close to the ski lifts of Gressoney (Punta Jolanda) and offers luxury rooms, suites and a spa area. All the rooms have TV, telephone, bathroom and some of them a private Jacuzzi. The hotel’s restaurant serves excellent Italian cuisine.

The 3-star Nordend Hotel is located in Staffal (a 5-minute walk from the ski lifts). It also has a spa area and modern rooms with TV, telephone and bathroom. The nearby restaurant da Giovanni serves excellent Italian meals.

Finally, the 3-star Gletscher Hotel is near the cable cars as well. It has 12 nice double rooms with private bathroom and TV. There is a spa, with a Turkish bath, a Finnish sauna and a Kneipp bath. The breakfast buffet provides the necessary energy for the skiing days.

You can not miss the opportunity to fly by helicopter and ski in this incredible region of the Alps. Please contact me if you would like to reserve your place for next winter!

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!!
