Description

The Vallee Blanche is a fantastic area for ski touring. It offers a very long descent that can be done in equally amazing sections.

One of the biggest and most famous highlights of the Vallee Blanche is that you´ll find yourself in the middle of the Mont Blanc Massif. Just being able to see this incredible massif is reason enough to visit. On this trip, you will be able to tour around the Massif and see the scenery in all of its glory.

The adventure will begin in Courmayeur. From Punta Helbronner (3,462m), we will get to enjoy a descent of just over 2,400 metres, until we reach Chamonix (1,037m). From there, we will take a bus to Courmayeur.

When it comes to which direct routes we take down the Vallee Blanche, and where we will take breaks, that will depend on a number of factors. Those factors include weather conditions, what specific scenic highlights you wish to see, and your ability.

In order to make the descent down the Vallee Blanche, you must have off-piste skiing experience and a good fitness level.

The Vallee Blanche is one of the most exciting and breathtaking skiing descents in the world. Not only is the descent a spectacular thrill, but the scenery around it is truly remarkable. From glaciers to peaks, you will never forget it. So please, send us a request, and let us guide you on this adventure.

We also offer a full day ski tour in Gressoney, on the south side of Monte Rosa.

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!!
