Unlike some ski touring routes which can be completed in a day or two, a Grand Traverse is a journey over the course of several days, where you cover a lot more distance and are fully immersed in the mountains the entire time. In French, this is known as a “Ski Raid” and it includes legendary traverses, circumnavigations of mountain ranges, and exploratory multi-day ski missions around the world. We travel from one mountain hut to another in high altitude terrain, combining climbs and descents in stunning environments! This kind of trip, far away from civilization, also gives us the opportunity to feel more at one with mountains and to live according to the rhythm of the surrounding nature. We will ski through wild landscapes and sometimes have the feeling to be the only humans around. Grand Traverse season generally starts in spring, and thanks to the presence of numerous mountain huts, there are endless options of itineraries. You just have to take the leap and choose one!
