Ski Touring in Iceland – Fire & Ice

Skiing from lonely peaks to the ocean shore, active volcanoes, hot springs, spas and aurora borealis, the northern lights

With its rugged coastline, secluded fjords, active volcanoes and glowing auroras, Iceland is a fascinating destination for every passionate backcountry skier. This country of fire and ice has a surreal appearance with ice-capped peaks and geothermal activity just below the surface. Leaving first tracks on these virgin slopes can only be described as ski touring deluxe.

Ski touring in Iceland between glaciers and geysers

Ski touring in Iceland means untouched mountains in perfect solitude. The slopes are rather flat and skiing is often possible right to the shoreline. No bush, no tree no tourists get in our way between the largest glacier of Europe and bubbling geysers. Iceland seems an unreal place, it is unique in many ways and particularly exciting as a skiing destination.

Ski Touring Valle Stura Piedmont

Fantastic rides, the world renowned cuisine of Piedmont and a little spa oasis

The Piedmont (Latin: pedem montium‚ at the foot of the mountains) is a laid back province of Italy. Situated close to the Swiss and French border, it is a region that is renowned both for excellent ski touring and powder snow as well as for its culinary delights. This is the birthplace of the Slow Food movement; its cuisine is high class yet rustic and alpine, it has no tolerance for rushing things. The village of Sambuco in Valle Stura is surrounded by mountains that soar above 3.000 m. There is no rush up here either.
