The Guides

Why us.

Mountains shape perspective. They teach humility, patience and respect. Guiding is more than showing the way – it’s about sharing our experience, passion and local knowledge to create mountain days that stay with you long after the day is over.

Paul Walser and his team are IFMGA/UIAGM/IVBV mountain guides and Level 4 ski instructors from the Ötztal. They have known the mountains around Obergurgl, Sölden and the Ötztal since childhood.
