The Zermatt heliski adventure represents everything that sets the Alps apart as the gold standard of skiing: top-notch hotels, incredible onslope dining, some of the most classic descents in the world, and the Matterhorn as a backdrop. We‚ll use the expansive lift system in combination with heli-drops as much as possible, often skiing into Italy or to another remote valley, before working our way back home at the end of the day. Your handpicked Zermatt Mountain Guide will line up the best runs you've ever skied, from secret steep tree runs to hour-long glacier routes. The Mont Cervin Palace is the ultimate Zermatt base camp, and special nights at the Guglielmina Hotel atop the Italian Col d‚Olen (10,000') and in the UNESCO world heritage wine- producing region of Lavaux at the end of the trip, are the icing on the cake.
