Haute Route，the legendary ski route linking Chamonix, France to Zermatt, Switzerland—has been one of the most iconic ski tour routes in the Alps since it was first completed in 1903.
Every spring from March to May, more than 3,000 skiers from around the world travel here, drawn by its history, its beauty, and the role it has played in shaping modern ski touring in the Alps.
In March 2025, our Laodeng Team:

@frankwuahe and myself—completed this 120-kilometer traverse with the guidance of IFMGA mountain guide
@michael.kimber88
Along the way, we battled harsh weather, fluctuating physical conditions, and all kinds of unexpected challenges. But through everyone’s persistence and teamwork, we pieced together a near-perfect journey on the Haute Route—and realized a dream that has been on my skiing list for years.
For me, ski touring is a way of life: a process of making peace with yourself, sharing time with friends, and coexisting with nature. Out in those silent mountains, we climb, we walk, we sleep in remote huts, and we savor the pure joy that only snow and altitude can bring.
Through this film, I hope to share that joy—so that anyone who dreams of ski touring may find the courage to take their first step, equipped with the right knowledge and respect for safety.
The road is long, and the mountains endless. We will keep searching, keep climbing.
Next stop—stay tuned.
