WHY THIS TOUR
Ski Mountaineering with PeakVisor
Ski touring season kicks off from Bormio. Three days, fresh snow in the Alta Valtellina, zero excuses not to climb. Whether you're just starting out with skins or want to raise the bar, you'll find your level here.
Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends
The experience
On the first day you'll pick up SKI TRAB technical gear and head up split by group: beginners learn skins, pacing and kick turns, while more experienced skiers enjoy a full outing. In the afternoon, the PeakVisor workshop teaches you to plan and read the terrain, scheduling your outings around weather and avalanche bulletins. Then come the Bormio thermal baths with aperitivo, to loosen up your muscles and enjoy the evening. On the second day you'll put it all into practice with a multi-level outing, before wrapping up the weekend at high altitude.
Why join us - Full technical gear included for two days - Small groups split by level, from beginner to advanced - PeakVisor workshop to plan your outings - Bormio thermal baths with aperitivo to close out the first day
Come on your own, no problem: among the Guidders you'll make friends quickly, on the snow and after.

Easy
Perfect for those who want to enjoy nature without too much effort. Short, well-marked trails with gentle slopes. No technical difficulties, just a desire to walk, breathe in the fresh air, and share the day with a group.
Ideal for: Beginners, families, those who want to take their first steps in trekking.
Easy Plus
A little faster pace, but still accessible. Slightly longer routes or with a few more hills, requiring some walking experience. The terrain is always easy and safe.
Ideal for: Those who walk regularly and want to challenge themselves a little.
Intermediate — this outing
Here we enter the world of true trekking. Steeper climbs, stretches on uneven or longer trails that require stamina. The physical effort is medium to high, and the fatigue is noticeable... but so is the satisfaction!
Ideal for: Those who already have experience and a good level of physical fitness.
Intermediate Plus
When the mountains begin to take their toll. More challenging routes in terms of gradient or duration, with technical sections or uneven terrain. Even a medium elevation gain can be tough if concentrated in just a few kilometers
Ideal for: Trained hikers, accustomed to walking on mountain paths
Difficult
Level suitable for experienced hikers with excellent stamina and surefootedness. The physical challenge is high, and there may be steep sections or possible exposure, which is always noted in the hike description. Perfect for those who enjoy pushing their limits and conquering significant peaks.
Ideal for: Those who already have experience in an Alpine environment and want to challenge themselves.
Difficult Plus
Only for true Guidders with their Wild Spirit at its peak Long routes, significant elevation gain (over 1,100 m), and technical or exposed terrain. Excellent physical preparation, sure-footedness, and the ability to manage fatigue at high altitude are required.
Ideal for: Highly trained and experienced hikers in the mountains.
