Maurienne Freerando Week

Roadbook

The six resorts of Haute-Maurienne offer a variety of terrains, altitudes, exposures, and microclimates — all within 30 minutes of our base.

A little further out, you can ski in Valloire or Les Karellis… or why not hop over to Italy and carve some turns through the larch forests of Jafferau-Bardonecchia?

As you can see, our guides are ready to craft an unforgettable week of skiing — in every style, for every taste!

Energy and adaptability — that’s our promise for great skiing, every day.

Weekly Program

Arrival on Saturday, with skiing planned over 6 days.

Day 1 (Sunday):
Welcome at the local base to prepare and check ski equipment.
The guide organizes a simple avalanche victim search exercise and checks the group’s level.

Days 2 to 6 (Monday to Friday):
Freerando (freeride touring) or ski touring.
The choice of resort—either Les Karellis or Bonneval-sur-Arc—will depend on weather conditions and your preferences.

Every morning, you’ll depart from your accommodation in a minibus to the selected resort.

Explore varied terrains for a unique experience in Maurienne.
After skiing, enjoy a convivial moment with a drink at the local base in Termignon to socialize and debrief the day before returning to your accommodation.

Day 7 :
Departure.

Required Level

At Altitude Guides, we love skiing so much that we want to offer a week that perfectly matches your expectations. We absolutely want to avoid having skiers end up in a group that isn’t suited to their level. That’s why we take great care in forming our group trips.

To ensure this, we’ve chosen to offer the following weeks for collective groups:

  • For intermediate skiers: January 16–23, 2027, and January 23–30, 2027
  • For advanced/expert skiers: January 30–February 6, 2027, and February 6–13, 2027

Depending on the level and desires of each group member, the guide will tailor the week’s program to suit you perfectly!

Equipment

Altitude Guides is equipped with the latest high-quality safety gear, thanks to our partnerships with Ortovox and BCA. We provide this equipment upon request.

We recommend skiing with touring equipment, including release bindings and climbing skins, for both ski quality and safety. (Link to Useful Information page/…)
