Familiarisation With Area.
You may be aware that the Portes Du Soleil is a vast area. I can show
individuals and groups around the slopes enabling them to get the best from their time here. I have been skiing with guests here for 10 years now and know the area very well. Skiers must be able to ski a red run due to the need to ski the Rochassons to go beyond the Chatel area but do not have to be experts. Intermediate skiers would have little problem. Depending on requirements, I will show skiers to places such as Les Gets or various circuits taking in both Swiss and French areas. Lunch is also part of the enjoyment and I know many good restaurants, plus which to avoid. The pace is only as quick as the group require making it a fun day out. Tuition cannot be provided but I will direct those that wish, to an appropriate instructor or school.

HELI SKIING in Geneva available from February to May.

HELI SKIING:
Heli-Ski outings take place in Switzerland or Italy as it is not permitted in France. I arrange a high mountain guide and the helicopter. I have found that people like to have someone to follow the group and help should a tumble take place. For example retrieving skis and poles. Skiers need to be able to ski reasonably well off piste but again not expert as the route would be chosen to suit the group. I can also ski with anyone who feels unsure of their capabilities in the Portes Du Soleil before they book a trip and advise them accordingly. I will also recommend the suitable skis and equipment plus arrange lessons with an instructor if required. It is often the case that there may be one or two persons within a party that would like to heli-ski. I will attempt to fill the numbers with other skiers as needed so individuals or small groups can be put together to have possibly one of the best days of their life. (clients said this not me). Obviously heli-skiing is weather dependant. Prices vary with numbers of participants and the location. A guide price is around 240 euros. Normally we would expect to leave Chatel at around 7AM and be back for evening meal.
