INSIDE TRACKS

As families gear up for the winter ski season, the focus on sustainability is more important than ever. With a growing awareness of environmental issues, families are making conscious choices about their impact on the beautiful mountains they cherish. Skiing is not just a thrilling experience for family bonding; it’s also an opportunity to reflect …..

One of the enormous benefits of ski-ing, and not ski-ing, in Klosters is the way it offers incredible walking opportunities. Increasingly our guests have been making the most of these, some who don’t ski, but often those who do but who want to enjoy the mountains on foot as well.   For myself, now a …..

Nestled amidst the snow-capped peaks of the Madrisa there exists a figure of whimsy and wonder—a creature as rare as a cloudy day and as spirited as a slalom racer – the PT Ski Panda! Iona, who works in our London office, met with the Panda to hear all about the highlights of the 2023/24 …..

The tour started under sunny skies and unseasonal warm weather. We took the train from Klosters to Guarda and then the little post bus up to the charming little village which is home to Swiss children’s favourite Schellen Ursli.

There was hardly a cloud in the sky, some fresh snow overnight and we were standing at the col at the top of the Chammgletscher with some 1500m of untouched mountain stretching out below us. This was our last day of our Silvretta Ski Safari which had started 4 fabulous days earlier.   The team …..

Ahead of launching next Summer we have been having a few taster days over the past month with rides exploring the Hampshire countryside. It was great to see the enthusiasm of our guinea pigs about e-bikes – some of whom are regular cyclists and others who hadn’t sat on a bike in 10 years – …..

On 30 August I, together with Sos P-T and Sophia from the office went to Hemel Hampstead snow centre to spend a morning with Snow Camp and on of their first tracks programmes. Having cycled a year previously to raise money for Snow Camp it was wonderful to see the charity in action and speak …..

In the middle of April we at last launched our Silvretta Ski Safari after two years of Covid forced postponements. It was definitely worth the wait! The team enjoyed 4 fabulous days in the mountains, 3 nights in mountain huts and summited 3 peaks along the way. The sun shone throughout and views were sensational. …..
