Welcome to the wonderful world of freeriding!

In this guided class around the freeride areas of the ski resort, you will get a glimpse of what Pyhä has to offer for freeriding. If the snow situation does not allow safe movement and skiing outside the slopes, we will familiarize ourselves with freeriding technique and equipment on the side of the slopes. In order to participate, in addition to solid skiing skills, you need a valid lift ticket, a backpack and skiing equipment. Price €16.

Equipment: Slightly wider skis or a wider snowboard (ideal for freeriding) makes it easier to ride off piste. Pyhä Ski Resort lends snow safety equipment to all participants.

Meeting place: in front of the Mesta
