What you can expect..

In this day and age we cannot guarantee you fluffy, champagne powder during your off-piste lesson. We won’t guarantee it but we will do everything in our capabilities to ensure that you get to ski the best conditions that are safely available to us on your day.

As mentioned above the 3 Valleys are so vast that options are plentiful for off-piste skiing. The skiing reaches high into the mountains and we have slopes that face every aspect which helps to provide us with the options.

Winter conditions can now happen at any time during the season – from December to April. From later in March we are normally looking to ski the “Spring Corn”. We may still get a little powder dump on the odd morn but come late March/April we get much more into our spring skiing – this makes off-piste skiing highly accessible to all skiers and is perfect for getting into ski touring too.

FAQ’s

Do you provide the necessary safety equipment?

Yes – for any off-piste session booked with us we will supply you with a backpack, transceiver, shovel and probe. This is included in the price of your lesson.

What if there hasn’t been any fresh snow for a while?

Thankfully in the 3 Valleys even if it hasn’t snowed for a while we usually very capable of finding good snow and terrain to make your off-piste session enjoyable and fun. It may not always be champagne powder but we’ll find you the best, most fun skiing you can get away from the slopes!

Will we still ski in a high avalanche risk day?

Yes – we can do a lot to mitigate those risks right down. We will stick to suitable mellow terrain and routes that keep us way from danger but still enjoying the snow.

I’ve never skied off-piste before – will I be able to do it?

An off-piste session with Marmalade doesn’t need to be just guiding. We can take our time and give you tips and techniques to make sure you are enjoying the experience as much as possible.

Meribel – Our meeting point is opposite the main ticket office at the Meribel Chaudanne. The wooden hut by the Legends chairlift and big piste map.
