Introduction to off-track skiing at Høvringen
After a week or two’s experience on tracks you should have a good
grasp of the basics and be moving with a fair amount of confidence. At
this stage you may be thinking of extending your repertoire and learning
the skills of off-track skiing. If so, this group holiday is for you.
Instruction will cover: breaking trail and setting pace, climbing and
descending with traverses and kick-turns, survival skiing downhill, and coping
with variable snow. We will also talk about navigation and route choice.
Skis with part metal-edges are needed, and they are included in the hire
package.
Climbing skins are needed and can be hired from us at a cost of £15 per week. (Must be reserved in
advance.)
This holiday is based at Øigardseter Fjellstue, see where we stay >> for details on accommodation.
