About trip

The terrain for heliskiing at VHSG has earned legendary status, extending beyond the extreme descents showcased in ski films. Skiers who have confidence skiing in-bounds at regular ski resorts can relish a world of excitement here. VHSG boasts an impressive variety of blue and black runs, exceeding the combined offerings of a dozen North American resorts, and they are always graced with a fresh layer of snow.
