Backcountry snowboarding trip - Baselines
Baselines is a week full of backcountry snowboarding trip, chasing the best lines on the mountains. The Arlberg is a true freeride and splitboard paradise, offering some of the most rewarding terrain and snow conditions in the Alps. With its well-connected lift systems, this region has earned its reputation as one of Europe’s top backcountry destinations.
Whether you’ve just dropped in or are already chasing big lines, expect to level up your snowboarding skills. Share your experience with other like-minded snowboarders, in the hotel or in one of many nice places St. Anton has to offer.
Hotel Bacherhof is a charming and welcoming family-run hotel located in the peaceful village of Sankt Jakob, near the ski resort of Sankt Anton am Arlberg. The hotel combines authentic Tyrolean charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal base for the Baselines camp. We offer the comfort of a 3-star stay with a warm, relaxed vibe. Choose from cozy double or triple rooms (some with balconies), including a hearty breakfast buffet, or spacious fully equipped apartments for 4–6 people. On top of that, we’ve got a ski storage room with boot dryers and plenty of parking space, so you can focus on your riding.

Is my level good enough for this backcountry snowboarding trip?
The program is a balanced mix of freeride and splitboarding, adapted to weather, snow conditions, and the group’s preferences. Some days we’ll use lifts to access freeride terrain; other days we’ll tour with splitboards to explore the backcountry. This flexible setup lets us make the most of each day, whether it’s chasing powder off-piste or deep in the backcountry
To join this tour, you should be confident riding powder on slopes of up to 35 degrees in varied snow conditions. Experience with off-piste terrain is recommended, though you don’t need to be an expert. A moderate level of fitness is also important, as we’ll be out for several hours each day.
