Details
Take a guided freeride tour with our experienced mountain guides to discover new spots and bag the best lines! The Zailiyskiy Alatau mountains present almost unlimited opportunities for backcountry riding and offer something for everyone, from newbies right through to the most seasoned pros. Whatever it is that floats your boat, we’ll help you find it – couloirs, rock drops, tree runs, or simply untouched fields of the deepest, fluffiest powder. Join a guided tour to find out more about these beautiful mountains, spend time exploring far from pistes, roads and skilifts, and develop your backcountry skills.
