SUMMARY:Ski touring course for beginners in Åre/ Storulvån 2026
DESCRIPTION:[vc_section el_id=”Översikt”][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nJoin a ski touring course in Åre / Storulvån. This course is for beginners who have never tried ski touring before\, or who may have done a tour on their own but want to learn more and start being able to plan and carry out tours independently in the future. We will not be doing any advanced skiing – if you are comfortable on blue/red slopes\, this course will suit you well! You also don’t need any previous off-piste experience. This is a beginner-friendly course where the focus is on making you feel more confident and helping you learn. We will go uphill at an easy pace\, with the goal of enjoying the tours together. If you are looking for something more extreme\, this might not be the right course for you. \nYou will also learn how to plan your own tours and gain basic avalanche knowledge\, including companion rescue. \n[/vc_column_text]\n	\n		\n\n\n			\n	\n\n[vc_column_text css=””]Date: March 6–8\, 2026 (3 days)Number of participants: Minimum 4 / Maximum 7Location: Åre / StorulvånPrice: 4500 SEK[/vc_column_text]\n		\n		Book here\n		Book here\n							\n			\n		\n					\n	[/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section el_id=”Innehall”][vc_row][vc_column]Content[vc_column_text css=””]Being able to head out on skis into nature is absolutely fantastic – an incredible sense of freedom.

On this course\, you will learn about avalanche awareness\, tour planning\, navigation\, uphill technique\, as well as route choice and terrain\, so that you can begin to venture out on easier tours on your own afterwards.[/vc_column_text]\n	\n		\n\n\n			\n	\n\n[/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section el_id=”Guider” el_class=”guider”][vc_row][vc_column grve_css=”{“desktop“:{“border-color“:“000“\,“class“:“grve-wpb-1737811049500“}}”]Guider[vc_column_text css=””]\nSimona HöglundInternational Mountain Leader & Ski touring guideSFLO Mountain Leader\, Certified International Mountain Leader (UIMLA) and ski touring guide.

Date & link will be sent out a couple of weeks before. \nDay 1We meet in Åre (Holiday Club) and start the day with a coffee & intro before heading out into the mountains where you will learn how the equipment works\, techniques for going uphill and skiing downhill. We have plenty of time for questions. The goal of the day is that you feel comfortable with your equipment and know how it works. We also practice avalanche search. Today’s tour may go to Mullfjället\, a classic in the area. \nDay 2We begin the day with an hour of theory focusing on tour planning. Then we head out on a longer tour. Renfjället can be a good option and with some luck it means a waffle along the way if the waffle hut is open! We look at route choices both uphill and downhill and terrain along the way and discuss in the group why we make the choices we do. \nDay 3Today we make a nice tour that the participants help plan. Which summit it will be is decided by the weather and conditions\, a surprise in other words! The participants also help with route choices and track setting during the tour. The goal is that after the day you should feel confident to go out on a simple tour on your own. We finish the day around 15:00-16:00\, just in time to catch the night train home. \nPlease note that the program may be adjusted due to weather conditions. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_row section_type=”fullwidth”][vc_column]\n	\n		\n\n\n			\n	\n\n[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_section el_id=”Forkunskaper”][vc_row][vc_column]Prerequisites[vc_column_text css=””] \nYou don’t need any previous experience with ski touring or off-piste skiing. This is a beginner’s course. If you can ski blue/red slopes\, that’s great – we won’t be skiing anything steeper than that. You’ll also need to be in good enough condition to be out on a tour for about 4–6 hours in a day\, at an easy pace\, carrying a light backpack. \nGet in touch with us if you need more info: info@topotravel.se \n [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section el_id=”Bokningsvillkor”][vc_row][vc_column]Trip information[vc_column_text css=””] \nIncluded \nThree days of ski touring experience and course together with a certified guideLoan of shovel\, probe\, and transceiverOnline avalanche course16-week training program \nNot included \nInsurance covering off-piste skiing (may be included in your home insurance)Personal equipmentFood and drinksTravel to and from ÅreAccommodation in Åre \nFull booking conditions can be found here \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_row section_type=”fullwidth”][vc_column]\n	\n		\n\n\n			\n	\n\n[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_section el_id=”Praktisk-info”][vc_row][vc_column]Practical information[vc_column_text css=””]Åre and Storulvån are true classics for everyone who loves skiing.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section el_id=”Packlista”][vc_row][vc_column]Gear list[vc_column_text css=””]Skis with touring bindingsClimbing skins that fit the skisTouring bootsBackpack approx. 35 LSki helmetGogglesHatBase layer\, shirt\, and pants (synthetic or wool\, not cotton)Light fleece sweaterThicker fleece sweater or light down jacketWind- and waterproof jacket (preferably shell without insulation)Wind- and waterproof pants (preferably shell without insulation)Thick mittensThin glovesSunglassesWater bottleSunscreenSnacksPersonal first aid kit with tape and blister plasters[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_row section_type=”fullwidth”][vc_column]\n	\n		\n\n\n			\n	\n\n[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_section el_id=”Boka”][vc_row][vc_column]Booking\n		\n		Book here\n		Book here\n							\n			\n		\n					\n	[/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section el_id=”Bildgalleri”][vc_row][vc_column]Photo Gallery\n	\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n		\n			\n				\n	\n				More\n								\n			\n	\n			\n		\n	\n\n[/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
