Ski touring routes

With routes from the best sources Skida makes it easier to find the safer alternatives. Our published routes has undergone mountain professional evaluation, both in the mountain and in the map. When we receive the track from the guide, avlanche instructor or other profession, we analyze it with our high resoultion elevation model. This gives you the best, objective insights of the terrain of the route.

At Skida, we gather ski touring routes from trusted sources and make them available in one place—complete with detailed avalanche maps, slope angle maps, and weather forecasts.

PETZL foundation

PETZL Foundation has funded a project mapping and documenting ski touring routes in France. Skida publishes these routes with an enriched dataset of attributes. These routes are published and maintained by Skitourenguru and PETZL Foundation.

Huge thanks to Simon and the VBC/MSC teams for their tireless work documenting quality backcountry tours and sharing knowledge with the community.

CARE

Since 2024 The Center for Avalanche Research and Education at UiT The Arctic University of Norway has been documenting ski touring routes in Norway. Each route has been validated and field tested by a certified mountain guide. A big thank you to CARE for their impact in avalanche safety.

Swisstopo

Many of our Switzerland routes are sourced from the official Ski Routes dataset, produced in collaboration between swisstopo and the Swiss Alpine Club (SAC). These digital touring routes are updated annually, giving you current, trustworthy lines to plan with. Huge thanks to swisstopo and SAC for enabling high-quality touring information.

Skitourenguru

Several of our Italy routes come from a Skitourenguru funded project, where tours are mapped, documented, and described as part of a broader Alpine initiative.
