- Nathan R.5 stars for Piste to Powder. The whole experience was top-shelf. Florian was as good a guide as my family has ever had. And Zoe worked behind the scenes to accommodate changes, additions and our every whim. They made a great team and were a huge part of our family’s first experience to the St Anton/Lech area. Can’t recommend them more. - 2024-04-12read moreread lessEvan F.We spend a week in Austria and booked 2 days with Piste to Powder. We had such a good experience in the first 2 days, we booked a third. If you want to explore the mountain and ski off piste, this is the way to go. We had an incredible experience. We spent three days with Flo which was amazing, but others in our group had different guides and all had an amazing experience. It made us all want to make it a yearly trip and we will definitely be booking again with piste to powder when we return to the region. - 2024-04-12read moreread lessMaximillian A.Florian is a legend!! One of the best vacations I’ve ever had! Piste to Powder is the only way you should ski the Alps :) An incredible blend of knowledge, fantastic skiing, perfect execution, & great energy! Definitely recommend - they gave us an unforgettable trip! - 2024-04-12read moreread less
- Arden R.Such a great guide service. We originally signed up for 2 days but ended up extending to a third day because we enjoyed it so much. The guides found all the best snow at a challenging time of year and were great at guiding those in our group of friends who had less experience in deep powder. Would absolutely use again next time I’m in St Anton which is hopefully soon! - 2024-04-12read moreread lessNataliaM3890Another great year We have been skiing with piste to powder for a couple of years now, and at the end of every trip we say it would be impossible to have a better one. Yet, they keep getting better.
We skied slopes we hadn't done before and eventhough it was busy and we thought it would be impossible to find good untracked snow, the guides were always able to find untouched galleys with perfect snow conditions. It is the perfect way to make the most out of a good skiing holiday and we will definitely do it again next season. - 2019-03-24read moreread lessbj_rnv2019Make the most of your days in the mountain If you wan't to experience the most amazing skiing day ever Piste to Powder is the company to see. They have experienced and knowledgeable guides that know the area by heart. If you love to go off piste, don't miss a day with Piste to Powder! - 2019-03-01read moreread less - CADebbieAwesome experience I figured that if I was going to travel all the way from California to St Anton to ski, I wanted to get the most out of the experience. After spending my first day on the piste with long lines, crowded slopes and spending far too much time looking at the map, I was anxious to get off-piste and away from the crowds. I decided to join an open group level 2 with Piste to Powder and was rewarded with incredible scenery, endless fresh tracks on open bowls and a great guide (Bernie) who knew the mountain well and took us to the best spots that I certainly would never have found or ventured to on my own. I'll admit that a couple of the drop ins and traverses made me go weak at the knees at first glance, but Bernie instilled confidence and was very patient. I enjoyed the small group experience and comradery of like minded skiiers. We were all exhausted at the end of the day but were on a high from the experience. I highly recommend this organization and would go with them again in a heartbeat if I'm ever back in the area. - 2017-02-23read moreread lessJohn_snowlifeBEST decision was to be Guided for a week I signed up for the Level 3 Open Group for the Monday. Snow still wasn't deep but the guide found us fun off-piste skiing with some fresh powder. It was so much fun and we went to places I could never find on my own. So I signed up for the whole week and it was the best decision I could have made! Tomas took us over the mountains, down the valleys and through the trees in search for untouched powder and we found loads of it. He was extremely professional and I felt safe at all times with him. Being guided the whole week made all the other expenses of the trip so much more worthwhile. - 2017-01-21read moreread lessBjarni E.Go with the flow I have been to Sankt Anton number of times to chase some off-piste lines and never hired a guide until now. We had two epic days but yet very different. One day of touring and even though the mountains were lacking snow our guide managed to find some fresh untouched lines. The second day was after it had snowed quite bit and we managed to ski untouched powder the whole day without doing any touring. I will definitely hire I guide again the next time I will be in Sankt Anton. Thanks for two epic days and great companion - 2022-01-24read moreread less

Zoe was encouraging and spoke English well. She followed up with me and set me up with my guide Stefan. Stefan was awesome. He crafted our tour to my abilities and was knowledgeable and fun to spend time with. It felt like spending the day ski touring with a friend. We climbed and skied a completely untouched route that was spectacular. Thank you again! - 2024-04-01read moreread less
- H B.Having planned a late season family ski vacation in Lech Zürs am Arlberg during a year of less than stellar snowfall, we were a little apprehensive about snow conditions. We hired a guide from Piste to Powder for our first day, hoping to get a sense of the various areas and where to find the best skiing. We scored a home run with Rupert (aka Rupi), who did a phenomenal job of navigating curve balls “Mother Nature” threw our way. With high winds leading to various lift closures, Rupi managed to find us plenty of great terrain in Zurs and St Anton, not to mention a fantastic lunch spot in St Christoph. His local knowledge was indispensable and his winsome manner marvelous! Thank you Rupi and Piste to Powder for a day we’ll all remember! - 2024-04-12read moreread less
Dreamer41546841138Enjoy! This was the eight time that we were instructed and guided by Geli and it was as always, we learned again, we made great trips, safely en joyfully guided by Geli.

Tom is a very good guide who knows the moutain very well. He managed to find some very nice runs with good snow and fresh tracks in theese challenging conditons. - 2023-06-12read moreread less - Reed A.My experience with Emi was like no other. It was out of this world. His knowledge of the mountain terrain, incoming and passing weather conditions to allow us to find the best spots was amazing. Personality wise, he was so great, it was like riding back home with one of my ‘boys’. After each section of riding it, he was just as excited and pumped as I was, always giving me ‘props’ and telling me how amazing that was. Emi was great with my go pro always making sure it was filming and in the right position for me to capture this day. His positivity and attitude puts him at the top of my experiences. I can’t thank him and your company enough for this day and one I will happily share with everyone. I say, when I’m back, I will definitely be reaching out. Thank you so much for ‘filling my bucket’ - 2023-06-12read moreread lessChristian M.The technique training with Geli prepared me perfectly for the upcoming season. Very professionally organized. Together with a great team we had a lot of fun that day whilst improving our skills. Geli had a lot of good tips for us - really looking forward to putting them into practice. - 2023-06-12read moreread lessJoshua D.Great experience with Matthias. We only went for three hours, but was amazing what you can do in a short amount of time. Great to have someone knowledgeable that you can trust. Fully recommend. - 2024-04-12read moreread less
- Peter W.Florian and Christoff turned a good ski vacation into a great one! For North American skiers (where off piste is still in bounds), these guys are essential to get to experience the whole resort. They not only know how to find the best snow but also are experts at managing the crowds on the hill. - 2024-03-12read moreread lesspieter e.As a solo traveller Piste to Powder gave my the chance to join a different group every day instead of paying for a private guide. It's also a nice way to meet other people from around the world who are into skiing. I went on a skitour with Stefan, who is a nice, friendly and calm guide. Later on I also joined the off piste technique course which I can recommand to everybody! Too finish my stay in Sankt Anton Magnus guided the way up the Arlberg winter ferrata. A cool small adventure. We used our spare time to do some off piste descends, finding and riding untracked powder. Magnus gave me a run for my money as my legs were completely empty at the end of the day! - 2023-06-12read moreread lessKári S.Another side of St. Anton with Piste to Powder We had two excellent days skiing the St. Anton backcountry with Flo who is both very competent and a fantastic guy.

- Malik K.We had an absolutely epic day with Phillip. He was incredibly patient with us as new ski touring enthusiasts, and he put us on some awesome snow. SO FLUFFY!!! This despite the fact that the mains resort was a total zoo. His expert knowledge of the mountain meant that we had fresh tracks all day long. - 2024-03-12read moreread lessExplorer09610100951Excellence! The wise and experienced guiding of Piste to Powder allows a full enjoyment of the mountain. It is when conditions are tricky that a good guide makes the difference. - 2024-02-10read moreread lessKendall B.Florian was our guide for a week as we skied between Lech and St. Anton. He was incredible! Not only was he professional and clearly extremely experienced, his personality was also well matched for our family. He did a great job at accommodating the different skill levels within our group and was always encouraging. Would 10/10 recommend using this business. There’s no other safe way to fully experience all the skiing the Alps has to offer without a guide, and Piste to Powder is an incredible choice! - 2024-04-12read moreread less
- 8049 R.Sehr abwechslungsreiche Skitour. Unser Guide Tom hat sich super ausgekannt und hat unsere Tour so gelegt, dass wir trotz allgemeinem Schneemangel noch gute Bedingungen vorgefunden haben. Es hat sehr viel Spass gemacht, und nebenbei haben wir noch einiges über Technik wie korrekte Haltung, Spitzkehren und sicheres Abfahren gelernt.

Our guide Stefan was excellent and very aware of reading the risk levels throughout the day. We got some amazing lines and Stefan was very professional and easy to talk to and guided us away from some of the riskier places. The booking process and payment process was all very easy. Would definitely recommend to all. We will definitely come back next year. Thank you! - 2022-06-12read moreread lessMarc L.Had the best guided day-tours ever.

Was so nice to get off the crowded and icy pistes, and our guide Flo was constantly checking the weather and guiding us to the best snow among the many back country options in St Anton. He expertly adapted to what we wanted which was a combo of hiking/skinning paired with great lunch spots :) He knew the mountain like the back of his hand pointing out rocks from hundreds of meters away. Very impressed with the service and would absolutely use again next time I’m in the area. - 2024-03-15read moreread less
