Mountain Ski Touring

Rate this item
(0 votes)

Mountain ski touring combines downhill skiing with climbing mountains. No ski lifts are used here so the skier must be able to climb the mountain he/she is going to ski downs. These skiers need to be physically fit so the sport is not for the masses.

Usually mountain ski tours take place away from the crowded ski resorts. Ski tours can often take place over multiple days, covering quite a bit of distance and allowing skiers to really experience nature in the great outdoors.
