Mountain Adventure Holidays
We have a true passion for cross country skiing and are one of the few British companies only employing professional ski instructors.
On our trips you will have great fun learning, and with top instructors you will find we work hard to improve your technique. This emphasis on excellent instruction, is perhaps no surprise as both our co-founders hold the highest cross country ski qualification awarded by the International Ski Instructors Association. Simply choose the trip which most suits your experience, expectations and level of fitness and we will do the rest.
We have introduced children as young as 8 to the sport, and encouraged octogenarians who have dreamed of a ski journey across the Norwegian wilderness. Many of our previous 'beginners' are now joining us on long distance ski journeys. It's a joy to witness!
Cross country skiing goes by many names and comes in various forms, 'nordic skiing', 'langlauf', 'ski de fond', 'telemark', etc. For an understanding of the disciplines please refer to our Frequently Asked Questions.
All our trips are available for private groups. If you would like to travel on different dates, or with family or friends on a bespoke trip, then please get in touch giving your preferred dates and itinerary.
