What is off piste skiing insurance?
Off piste skiing typically refers to any skiing near, adjacent to, or between controlled trails and slopes. This type of skiing allows skiers to leave the marked runs and explore the open mountains without boundaries.
Our policy includes the following features:
- Off piste without a guide (provided not against local advice and not alone).
- We will cover up to 21 days of skiing on any single trip and 31 days during an annual policy.
- Reimbursement of costs of transportation to another site due to lack of snow or natural disaster such as avalanche which closes your resort.
Safety guidelines
Although not all off piste skiing is necessarily on difficult terrain, the nature of skiing on an uncontrolled and open mountain means that you might encounter any gradient or snow condition at any time.
For these reasons we must stress the importance of not skiing alone, heeding avalanche warnings and not skiing in areas designated as unsafe by local authorities. Failure to abide by these guidelines will invalidate your insurance policy.
