Back country nordic hiking

Nordic touring is an alternative activity to cross-country skiing and alpine touring. In contrast to the cross-country skiing which requires groomed and marked trail and to alpine touring which requires specific equipment ( skis, boots and sealskin) and excellent off-piste skiing technique.

This activity is practiced in hilly terrain, out of the ski area. This leisure does not require any specific handling. The heel is not fixed at all, and the boots are higher and more rigid. The skis are wider but lighter, equipped with edges and an anti-backward system, permanently fixed under the skis.

You need to have a good level in ski because it’s technical.
