Ortler Route Ski Tour
March 23 - 29, 2027
This is one of the great ski traverses in the Alps. Home to some of the largest glaciers in the Eastern Alps, this tour connects beautiful alpine huts which provide access some some unforgettable skiing objectives. What sets this trip apart from other tours is the amazing food and the standard of the huts. You can expect to eat well and enjoy yourself as we explore this region and discover its unique culture and history.
Easily accessed from major airports such as Innsbruck, Munich or Milan, we spend 7 days of touring between mountain huts that feature hot showers, and delicious Italian food, while treating ourselves to the many ski descents in the area.
Enjoy long runs down powder-filled bowls on the way to beautiful huts!
