Local Guides Greenland

For skiers, Greenland's appeal might initially be the varied terrain of glacier fjords and granite cirques, mostly accessed by boat or helicopter. North of Nuuk, iceberg-dotted waters and glacier tongues make for dramatic backdrops for even the mellowest of slopes. But visitors who over-focus on terrain can easily miss the country’s unique culture, which extends beyond city limits and into every mountain.

The 23I24 season is a wrap

The Alpine racing season 23I24 was one of ups and downs for Fischer, with some notable highlights and a happy ending. Alongside Bryce Bennett's (USA) amazing weekend in Val Gardena, Daniel Yule's (SUI) record victory in Chamonix, a perfect finish for Stefan Rogentin (SUI) and several other podiums, Raphael Haaser's (AUT) third place in the Super G overall standings was certainly the biggest highlight in a season with many cancelled races and sometimes difficult conditions. The #fischerracefamily once again proved it's competitiveness and the capabilities to attack the podium in every race!
