Chamonix is the birth place of modern Alpinism and extreme skiing, and world famous for a reason: it's an amazing and inspirational place. But if you don't yet have the skills to really explore what's out there, it's easy to miss what the fuss is all about. Our 'specialist weeks' are courses and holidays designed to show you the best of what Chamonix has on offer - under the guidance and tuition of our team of mountain experts. Back country ski weekends, ice climbing, ski touring, avalanche awareness, and more, all run with our professional mountain guiding partners, and expert powder hounds at Dream Guides. You don't need to be an expert already to join in and start exploring off the beaten track. Our courses are designed for all abilities - the aim is to have fun, but our courses are also focussed on helping you learn new skills and improve existing ones. Safety is paramount!
