PRE-SALE PRICE: 10% OFF UNTIL DECEMBER 15 // Are you interested in ski touring but not quite sure where to start? Here’s the perfect opportunity to discover the sport in an inclusive, non-competitive atmosphere! Our introductory ski touring day in Quebec City is designed for skiers and snowboarders who want to learn the basics of ski touring, such as managing gear and clothing, ascending techniques, and transitions. Groups of 8 are formed in advance and paired with a duo of experienced Chèvres instructors to adapt to each participant’s skill level and pace. The goal is for you to get started and learn in a positive, safe, and enjoyable environment. Equipment rentals available!
Whether you’re interested in trying splitboarding or ski touring, our team will guide you through this memorable day at the Le Relais ski resort. Since the terrain is suitable for all skill levels, the introductory session is gentle and tailored to each person’s abilities. The resort’s chalet is also available for us to warm up in. The ski touring introductory day is a great opportunity to meet other women who are new to the sport and to enjoy the great outdoors together.
