Day 6

While skiing at Kitzbuhel is a dream come true, our last day is by far the single most important part of the whole trip. Heli-Skiing is a bucket-list activity, invented by Canadians, that really allows us to travel to out-of-bound trails few have ever ventured. The activity will be expensive and time consuming. We’ll need to get up extra early for a two-hour drive from Kitzbuhel to Vorarlberg and during the one day we’ll get in 4 runs before making the two-hour return drive. However, the experience is priceless. ‘Wucher Helicopter’ leaves right from the Lech Ski Hill and will drop us three on the top of Schneetäli where we can experience trails never before skied. Wucher offers a few pictures and a video on their site that give you a feel for what it’s like take on their Heli-Skiing experience:

Below is a trailer for a movie that passionately describes what it means to ski uncharted territory:
