6 RIDERS
£899 or £699 Guiding only
31st Jan - 7th Feb 2026 - 3 Spaces - Splitboard Course
These courses are focused towards guiding and shaping the teams skills around planning and execution of more remote missions in the pursuit of quality snow and unique experiences.
The crew is purposely small to create a solid team spirit and the capacity for the lead guide to provide more personalised support and tailored skills development. Typically this will focus around building technical splitboard, navigation and avalanche safety skills.
This isn’t a walk for the sake of walking course. If you love hiking all day then we recommend you join a ski touring group. We’re snowboarders aiming for the best bang for our buck. Some days it’ll be no effort for glorious in-resort powder, others could be through the night to an abandoned resort for a magical sunrise shred. The conditions lead the way as we plan for some cool adventures away from the crowds.
All participants should ideally have their own splitboard and compatible splitboard crampons or arrive with a hired splitboard and crampons as there are limited hire options within the resort.
This course includes:
7 Nights shared B&B accommodation in The Larcherhof
5 Days guiding
Apartments are typically shared between two people with the option of twin or double arrangements, however, we do try to arrange a single room, depending on how busy the hotel is. If you would like to guarantee a single room, we suggest booking your own accommodation within Mayrhofen or Hollenzen (just outside Mayrhofen). If you're allocated a single room a small additional charge of £100 will be added to your course fees.
If you have any questions about this course, please review our travel guide, explanation of the course riding levels, kit list's or FAQ's and then feel free to drop us a line.

"It's has been my second year snowboarding and splitboarding with James. James is the best snowboard and splitboard instructor and guide, always knowing how to build up my skills and confidence step by step (most importantly safely and having fun), and always tries the best to find the best pow runs for the group. I've had the best pow rides ever this year on this Macedonia splitboarding trip, 16.5km fresh pow runs, 4715m of descent, the best!"
"An amazing week. The snow report hadn't been great but James knew where all the good stuff was hidden, as the drone footage shows! There is just so much to explore here if you're willing to earn the turns. I also enjoyed developing mountain awareness - getting involved in the pre-planning, discussing snow/weather conditions and strategies, picking a good skin track, etc. I booked another trip with James later in the season and am returning to Mayrhofen for another week's splitboarding this season - I guess that says it all."
"From my side I can say that our trip definitely exceeded my expectations. I was not very optimistic due to the lack of snow, but even in those conditions we had a wonderful week!
And all that because of your guidance and experience.I have done many trips with guides in my life (1-day and multidays), and I can tell you that you are on the top 3 list of all guides that I rode! Your attention to the details, knowledge of the areas and risk awareness are amazing! So for me you are getting to the category of guides with whom I can just relax and follow."
Please make sure you read and understand the riding levels required for this course, as those riders who do not meet the required standards may be unable to complete their course and will not be offered a refund. Our Austrian splitboard adventures are not for under 18's.
