Oxygene off piste and mountain guiding

Off piste adventures with experience English speaking mountain guides

Location
Meribel

These mountain guides provide excellent off-piste experiences with safety equipment provided.

Make the most of each powder day. If you want to explore the true terrain of the mountain, learn how to ski across powder and ride the line of the season, they are there to help. They offer sessions for those that are just starting to explore off-piste through to those that already have plenty of experience and want to find the best powder spots in the valley.

All their mountain guides are fully qualified and have plenty of experience in the local terrain. They all speak English (other languages are also available) so you can relax and communicate with ease. They take safety seriously.

That’s why when you book one of their off-piste and guiding lessons, they provide transceivers, shovels, probes and ABS bags completely free of charge. At this school, they know how to handle the mountain with care.

Where to meet

Their meeting point for lessons is just at the bottom of the "Rhodos" bubble lift on the snow front in the centre of Meribel, the area is called La Chaudanne. Just follow the bright blue flags.
