Imagine yourself standing in skis 5,500 metres high up in the Everest region. Watching in awe as the chopper makes its way back down to your rendezvous point. All that's left is you, your skis and metres of dazzling white powder between you and base camp. What are you going to do?

This is the ultimate adventure of a lifetime. An opportunity for you to sample some of the finest skiing ever, at the highest most dramatic mountain range in the world. This is no ordinary ski trip, you may find yourself on terrain that has never been skiied before as you, your group and guide chart history and create runs that will leave an imprint on your mind forever.

During this amazing ski week you will start skiing at an altitude from 4,000 to 4,500 metres and when you and your group feel good at this altitude you will move up to reach the 5,000 to 5,500 metre zone. You will always be skiing down to our base camp, which will be sitting around 3,500 to 3,200 meters.

As an example one ski run lasts an average of 1 hour and includes the helicopter drop off, a ski time of around 40 minutes and a rest of 20 min at the base camp, where the sherpa staff will serve you refreshments and where you will have the opportunity to make a phone call or send an e-mail if necessary.

Throughout the 5 days of skiing on average you will take part in 2-3 runs in the morning and 2-3 runs in the afternoon. (This obviously depends on the length of the runs as some runs can take a whole morning/afternoon!)

PRICES BEGIN AT $10,900 AND THE ADVERTISED PRICE MAY FLUCTUATE SLIGHTLY DEPENDING ON THE EXCHANGE RATE.
