Like nature, outdoors & skiing? Then you'll love today's ski joering adventure in the Swiss Alps.
Discover Ski Joering
Ski joering (aka horse-drawn skiing) is a unique outdoors experience that's fun, exciting & different than anything else. Trained horses are fitted with a harness that's connected to a bar for the skier to hold. The skier is then pulled by the horse, so its similar to waterskiing only on snow, and with a horse instead of a boat. It’s an amazing sport and a perfect way to experience the Alps and Aravis Passion is one of the only companies in the region that offers it. Almost anyone can participate in ski joering, as long they are seven years of age or older and have a 1 star or higher ski level.
What happens on the tour
After arriving at the meet-up point in La Clusaz (less than an hour from Geneva), you’ll receive a comprehensive safety breifing from the experienced Aravis Passion instructors. After that, the guide will lead you and the horses on an hour-long ride through well-groomed paths in the Alps. You’ll go at a slow and relaxing pace until you get the hang of things, but your guide can get the horses galloping if you want to increase the adrenaline factor.
