Day 1
Meeting with the guide in Alagna or Gressoney at 8:30 AM for equipment check and distribution of technical materials. Introduction to off-piste skiing in the Monterosa Ski area. We will start the first day on easy terrain to teach you and refine your technique before moving on to more challenging slopes to put you to the test and allow for some fun. Dinner and overnight stay at the Gabiet Hut.
Day 2
The morning will be dedicated to off-piste skiing to loosen up the legs in preparation for the ascent with skins to the Zube Pass and Corno Rosso (about 2 hours). We will descend into the Otro Valley on the gentle slopes between the huts of Foric, Pianmisura, and Weng. Dinner and overnight stay at the Zar Senni Hut, a mecca for Alagna enthusiasts.
Day 3
Destination: Giardino di Otro, once an heliski landing site and now a protected wildlife reserve. This area is rarely frequented by skiers, and we will ascend to the last fossil glacier of Monte Rosa, dominated by the impressive north face of Corno Bianco. Due to its northern exposure, the snow in the Giardino di Otro is often perfect. Dinner and overnight stay at the Zar Senni Hut.
Day 4
In about 1 to 1.5 hours of ascent, we will reach the Passo dell’Uomo Selvatico, which will offer us a truly superb view of Monte Rosa. The descent through the ancient forests of D’Zender back to Alagna or Gressoney will be the highlight of a relatively unknown tour, making it a frontier of truly unspoiled spaces and solitude.
