Avalanche Training

Foundation & Advanced Avalanche Awareness Courses for Skiers and Snowboarders

Our Avalanche Awareness courses at Mountain Tracks provide essential training for recreational skiers and snowboarders looking to explore off-piste terrain safely. Mountain sports have inherent risks, but you can significantly reduce danger by assessing and choosing safe terrain versus unstable areas.

Our expert-led courses teach you how to effectively use avalanche safety equipment—such as transceivers, probes, and snow shovels—and evaluate snow conditions to make informed decisions before heading onto snow-covered slopes.

All courses are scheduled in Chamonix, and we also offer bespoke avalanche safety training for private groups in other mountain resorts.

Mountain Tracks has partnered with WeMountain to offer online avalanche safety courses for those wanting to build theoretical knowledge before heading into the backcountry. These online sessions cover essential avalanche fundamentals and are a great way to prepare for hands-on training. Gaining a solid understanding of avalanche theory is crucial, as it helps you make informed choices about terrain, snow stability, and potential hazards even before setting foot on the slopes.
