Just returned from the five day cat skiing package with Nord Freeride. Had a great time.

Conditions improved every day, and had a blue-bird powder day to finish. Epic.

Danny and Donatt were expert guides, good company, and spoke excellent English. Art led everything else, from driving the cat, giving the safety tutorial, liaising with the lodge restaurant & accommodation, handling transfers, and sorting the various issues that arose (mostly the guests' fault!). No mechanical faults with the snow-cat.

As other reviews have said, the food was fresh from a nearby dairy farm and absolutely delicious. Accommodation was comfortable and modern - don't expect luxury and you won't be disappointed. It's all about the skiing, snowboarding, and camaraderie, which were top-notch.

My first cat-skiing experience, so nothing to compare it to, but an unforgettable winter adventure. Highly recommend.

Nice People, Some Setbacks

I participated in the 4-day package from February 2 to 6, 2025. In the end, it turned out to be a fantastic experience. Unfortunately, the snow conditions were not great (mostly crusty, no powder at all, and there was a lack of snow in the lower parts due to rain). We also had two days of fog, which I understand can happen in the area.
There were also some issues with the snowcat: it only worked for one day, then broke down. We had to wait for a replacement snowcat, but that one also broke down, forcing us to cut two catskiing days short. On top of that, on the second day, they had an accident with the shuttle bus.
So, there were quite a few inconveniences, but Art and his incredibly friendly team made up for them with great effort and a fantastic attitude. I had a great time with them and with the group of participants. The location was very nice—a farmhouse with simple but genuine food and beautifully renovated rooms.
Considering the competitive price, I still think it was a good deal, and I’m sure Art and his team will work on fixing these issues in the future to make the experience even better.

Very organized. Artan the guide is very friendly guy. The hotel is not big, but very old school and classic. The food is organic coming from the 2200ft cow meat.
The best of this trip were terrains are virgin, no one had touched them before , and very wild mountine. Every day new terrain, we were never bored because everyday we had to ski in new terrain. Also they send us in a night life club one of the days with free beers, or alcoholic drinks and live music. It was fun really. I would suggest the transportation to be quicker. Overall I would recommend. One of the most affordable and fun catskiing I did in Europe.
