Ultimate Alps

Europe Ski & Snowboard Camp

Alps Adventure Summer Camp

Overview

Summer Ski Camp - Bold Earth skis in France, Switzerland and Italy! Spend an unforgettable summer in the heart of Europe snowboarding, skiing, rafting, rock climbing, and backpacking. Ultimate Alps is an adrenaline packed multi-sport adventure! Alps Teen Adventure Program!

FRENCH ALPS: SKI, SNOWBOARD & WHITEWATER RAFT

We kick off our trip at Les Deux Alpes, where we ski or snowboard with experienced mountain guides on the world's largest skiable glacier! Each morning, we hit the slopes hard before jumping into off-snow adventures during the afternoons: whitewater rafting, mountain biking, waterfall hiking and summer luging keep our adrenaline racing throughout the day!

ITALY: ROCK CLIMBING AND SNOW SPORTS

Explore the beautiful rolling hills of Verona, filled with quaint Italian shops, rich history, and restaurants serving homemade pasta. The jagged peaks of the Dolomites are the backdrop for three days of spectacular backpacking, rock climbing, and more time on the slopes among these stunning cloud-veiled mountains.

SWISS ALPS: ZIP-LINING & WATER SPORTS!

World-famous Interlaken is the home base for our service project at a local Swiss farm. Then, under the shadow of the Alps, we wakeboard and waterski in the adventure capital of Europe. In Saas Fee we spend three more days skiing and trying the European sport of canyoneering: rappelling through waterfalls, bouldering up rocks and crossing the canyon on a zip-line. This is one of our highest-rated activities! The town of Zermatt allows for some souvenir shopping and relaxation before we say goodbye to our new friends and the trip of a lifetime!
