Ski Touring Course and Yoga
A weekend of ski touring in the mountains, with yoga morning and evening, run with Hemsedal Mountain Guides.
With Nøsen as our base, we are running a ski touring course over the weekend of 22 to 24 January.
We put a warm house and good yoga together with a ski touring course in the mountains. Breath and movement alongside reading the weather and the avalanche forecast. Planning a tour, using skis and avalanche gear, choosing a route and handling risk out in the mountains. You may even want an ice bath.
The yoga is led by Ellen Marie Medin, and everything out in the mountains by mountain guide Bjørg Selvåg.
Everyone needs to bring
- Touring skis with skins, and poles
- Touring boots
- Helmet and goggles
- Day pack

Gear can be hired at www.moh.no, and Hemsedal Mountain Guides can bring it up for you if you ask.
