Guides office
SMS Mountain Guides office is an official guides' bureau that offers off-piste excursions, and heli-skiing drops to all the region's freeride spots during the winter. It also offers ski touring tours. All these programs are led by IFMGA certified professional mountain guides. Outside of the winter months, the office's activities focus on Haute Routes and other high and mid-mountain hikes, summit ascents, rock climbing, glacier crossings, and activities such as via ferrata and canyoning.
