Guided tours
In addition to shop and rental, Sport Corner Ylläs provides guided tours.
We introduced guided ski touring trips in the Spring 2021. They became a huge success so we will keep on providing them. Please note we can only take a restricted number of participants for each tour so make sure to book in advance! Prior ski touring experience or own equipment is not mandatory.
Ski Touring trips with an experienced guide
Join our experienced guide to enjoy the untouched snow fields of the pristine fells around the Ylläs area. Every tour is adjusted to the skills and wishes of each group so that everyone gets to enjoy skiing as well as the wonderful nature.
Every Tuesday and Thursday: Ski tours to one of the "home fells". Start at noon, 12:00, duration ca. 3 h. Min. 2 persons, max. 8. The price 125 €/person includes ski touring equipment, avalanche safety tools and guiding. 85 € in case you have equipment of your own.
Bike to Ski — hardly available anywhere else! We pack our ski touring equipment to a pulk and ride with E-fatbikes through the fells to the wilderness hut Kotamaja. After leaving the bikes there we've got fells Pyhätunturi and Lainio around us, just waiting to be climbed up and skied down. After a few sweet runs we have the chance to take a proper break at Kotamaja, where a hot bowl of soup or a coffee with a "munkki" is well deserved after the skiing! Duration ca. 5–6 h. Min 2 persons, max. 8. The price 225 €/person includes an E-fatbike, ski touring and avalanche safety equipment as well as guiding. 185 € in case you have equipment of your own (includes bike and guiding). The tour is only organized upon request and must be pre-booked.
In ski touring trips you can test the latest and the lightest equipment from Dynafit. In our rental we have skis 74-107 mm wide and boots 950-1450 g.
Both tours require intermediate downhill skiing skills, proper clothing depending on the weather, a warm, extra jacket, spare gloves and some water and snacks. In addition, make sure you have an insurance that covers backcountry skiing. For the ones with the skiing equipment of their own we rent avalanche safety equipment 50% off the list price. The tours are suitable for many experience levels, meaning prior ski touring / backcountry skiing experience is not needed. Please book your tour in advance so we can organize suitable groups for every one.
