Get your skis ready, and hit the slopes!<\/em>Get your touring skis out! 
<\/h2><\/div>\n\n

The ski resorts have closed, snow is returning to the peaks, and the sun is shining more often and getting warmer. While for some, spring<\/strong> means barbecuing on the patio, working on their tan by the lake, or going on a hike, for others, ski season isn\u2019t over yet<\/strong>! Spring is the perfect season for ski touring<\/strong>, which is why you shouldn\u2019t just give up and put your skis away in the closet! On the contrary, it\u2019s time to break out your climbing skins and touring skis and make the most of the early morning sunlight, mild temperatures, mountain huts that welcome you, and more. <\/p>\n\n

To enjoy this activity safely, discover high-mountain ski touring with a guide: \u00c9crins Guide Office, Alpes Aventure, and Roc Odyss\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n
