Group Off-Piste Snowboard Courses
Nothing beats leaving your mark on the mountain as you glide down a powder run. If you want to explore the incredible off-piste available but don’t know the resort, don’t have the kit or don’t have a group you trust to ski with, then our Off-Piste group lessons are perfect for you.
Our off-piste group lessons cater for every skill and confidence level. When choosing your lesson, it is best to think about your technical ability and how close to the edge of your comfort zone you would like to be pushed.
You may be a strong technical snowboarder, but off-piste, this is only half the picture. Confidence can play a huge part. If you’re unsure which option is best for you, don’t hesitate to contact our team, who are on hand to help you find the perfect lesson.
Our instructors will always place your safety at the heart of every decision. They will endeavour to find you the best snow in the resort but have to balance this with Avalanche Safety and the level of the group.

Off-Piste Course Overview
Explore and develop your skills with a team of skiers and snowboarders with similar abilities. Our off-piste specialist instructors will show you the resort’s best-kept secrets while keeping you safe.
Some tips to make the most of your off-piste group lessons with us:
- If you’re out with us all day, and we’re heading into the backcountry, we might stop at a refuge. Or we might grab lunch on the mountain if you’re skiing with us all day, so bring a sandwich in your backpack or bring some money for a bite to eat. Your instructor will inform you of lunch plans beforehand.
- If you have avalanche equipment, please bring your own. We can provide avalanche equipment if necessary. Please inform us beforehand so we can prepare the equipment for you.
- Please bring a mobile phone with you.
- Please wear a helmet for all off-piste lessons.
- Make sure you’ve got a piste map in your pocket (you can pick them up from most lift stations or the tourist office.)
As these are group lessons, we ask that you consider the others in the group. Please be realistic about your level. managing a split-ability group off-piste is much more challenging!
