Practical information
The day before your heliskiing trip you'll confirm all the details with your guide: meeting time and place, best itinerary depending on the weather conditions.
You will usually meet at the heliport around 8.30am but if you're accomodated in Verbier, the Adrenaline shuttle bus will pick you up to get you to the agreed meeting point.
Programme of the day
- First thing first, your guide will brief you on the itinerary of the day and weather conditions.
- You'll get geared up and your guide will remind you how to use the security equipment and the basic rules in altitude.
- Then you're off! The helicopter will take you up the itinerary you chose and you'll get to ride some of the most thrilling backcountry slopes!
- You can choose to have a ski touring part during your day if all the participants have their equipment. Most of the time, you won't need skins and the ride will last around 2.5 hours.
- You should be back at the heliport around 2pm. Those who wish can go for another ride for a CHF 600 supplement per person.
Examples of itineraries
Trient
The helicopter will drop you off at a 3300 metres altitude up Glacier du Trient. Heliskiing in massif Trient offers a large panel of possible itineraries and crazy freerides with possible combination of ski touring and freeriding. You usually go down val d’Arpette to Champex village via Ecandies pass. The beautiful slopes of Trient glacier and Orny valley are a classic too.
Petit Combin
The helicopter will drop you off at a 3672 metres altitude. You'll get a panoramic view over Mont-Blanc, Cervin and all the Bernese Alps!
The slopes of Petit Combin are varied and usually take you down to the village of Fionnay through Corbassiere glacier.
For ski touring fans, you'll be able to put on your skins to the Otanes or Ane summits which are a real blast and pure moment of evasion!
Rosablanche
The helicopter will drop you off at a 3396 metres altitude. The summit is easily accessible via ski touring from Mont-Fort.
A lot of slopes from intermediate to advanced levels are accessible from this spot, either on Grand Désert glacier or Siviez.
All participants must be good skiers (be able to ride on red slopes).
