winter mountain holiday
The leading European heliskiing agency since the early 1980's, at Yak & Yeti we offer you our heliskiing expertise, experience and passion, to help you discover the most beautiful heliskiing bases on the planet 'Mountain': Heliskiing in Russia, Heliskiing in Turkey, Heliskiing in Greenland, Heliskiing in Canada, Heliskiing in Chile.
Our different heliskiing bases are in the Caucasus mountains, at Krasnaya Poliana, at Mount Elbrouz, and of course on the legendary Kamtchatka peninsula in Eastern Russia. Our main goal is to offer you the best heliskiing and snowboarding in the world with maximum safety conditions thanks to high quality staff.
Drawing from our in-depth experience with different heliskiing operations around the world, we have decided to open our own heliskiing bases to meet the following criteria: Close to Europe to limit access trip duration and jet lag. Large surface area of the mountain ranges, with summits culminating at 3000 meters. Proximity of the sea to ensure snow mantle stability. Organization of heliskiing in small groups with a maximum of 3 groups per week. Groups led by highly experienced guides and pilots. Possibility to reserve your own private trip with personal guide and helicopter.
Descents take place between 3200 and 700 m altitude. A never-ending succession of superb, wind-sheltered slopes and bowls, magnificent forests of well-spaced silver birches and snow conditions that no longer exist in Europe (influence of the Black Sea) create a true powder and heliskiing paradise for skiers of all levels on non-glacial terrain. The ski lifts (4 chairlifts) offer a genuine ski area that is appreciated in bad weather.
It is no accident that some of the most experienced heliskiing guides in the world have left other more traditional activities to join the team at Yak & Yeti Héliski. Small groups, an unbelievable diversity of terrain and magnificent chalets all distinguish Yak & Yeti Héliski from other operators. For many heliskiing connoisseurs, Yak & Yeti Héliski holidays have become a must to which they return each year. Certain regions can offer skiing in forests or glades, but Yak & Yeti offer you all this with optimum quality - glaciers as far as the eye can see, wide bowls and well-spaced trees, and even the volcanoes of the Kamtchatka !
The territory available to us is immense (exclusivity of Yak & Yeti Services). It offers an unlimited choice of descents according to the different exposures, snow quality, altitude, and the group's technical level. The site of Lake Riza is especially suited to heliskiing and offers each skier the opportunity to leave tracks in totally virgin powder. Groups are made up of 5 skiers or snowboarders led by an experienced guide (European guide, member of the International Union of Mountain Guide Associations - UIAGM). Each guide has a radio link to the other guides and the helicopter. The guides have all the necessary first aid equipment in their pack.
Yak & Yeti Héliski has been specializing in heliskiing and skiing holidays since 1980. We believe that heliskiing is an activity that must take place in optimum safety conditions, in small groups led by experienced and friendly mountain guides. Its impact on the environment must also be minimal. The adventure that you will experience must remain 'interior'.
