Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hi All,

I'm looking for some ideas for where to go for a ski touring trip mid to late March. I will be going with a partner who is pretty competent, but I still struggle a bit with skiing off piste, so we are looking for somewhere with lots of easy day touring options. We've had a few trips to the Queyras and Ecrins areas, which we like, but fancy something different. I've been recommended Khutai, any other suggestions gratefully recieved.

I'd strongly recommend the Silvretta region of Austria. If you start in Ischgl you could do a hut to hut trip, with some nights in Switzerland and others in Austrian huts.

The terrain is really mellow - both up and down - and you would have an "away from it all" experience with the opportunity of doing some easy summits.

And the huts are excellent - mostly with hot showers and excellent food and (importantly) drink. Very Happy

@cavegirl99, Val Maira is superb. I've done two trips there past two seasons and a couple of road trips and as they've had such good snow this season should be good spring touring conditions.
I'm on the mobile but will post later some links, trip reports.

Mont Thabor would be a good choice:

Easy access, no glaciers to worry about, plenty of huts to choose from.

@cavegirl99,

So I am biased but Les Contamines is brilliant for easy day tours (from the lifts). It also has rather serious and energetic hut to hut stuff on the Mont Blanc side of the valley.

I've posted a couple of trip reports on the easy stuff before.
