Example of the itinerary:

We are going to be based in the Sunnmøre Alps. Its’ mountains are surrounding two of the most dominant fjords in the region, Geirangerfjord and Hjørundfjorden. The area has an unlimited amount of peaks offering great opportunities for different levels of skiing skills and recent conditions. Most of the ski tours offer trips of about 1000 vertical meters.

On the first day, we will focus on getting to know each other, making sure that we can choose the right terrain for everyone`s skiing skills and physical abilities. A big part of the `introduction day` will be spent with avalanche awareness and rescue practice. Our location will be in and around Strandafjellet ski resort.

During the upcoming days, we will adjust our ski touring plans according to the current conditions, weather, and the group`s skills and wishes. Some of the classic tours we can get inspired by are for example Blæja, Kvitegga by Ljøen, Jolgrøhornet, and more...
