Spending time in the mountains with friends — our mission statement reads a lot like yours. We help take the guesswork out of planning and executing safer, more enjoyable journeys into the most beautiful mountains on the planet. Chamonix, Svalbard, the Selkirks, the Cascades, the Dolomites, the Colorado Rockies, you name it. Whether you’re looking to go faster and farther, or just cruise at a casual pace, Vetta strives to deliver unforgettable, magical experiences on rock, ice, and snow.

Vetta partners with elite guides throughout the world. We work only with certified, IFMGA mountain guides like Tim Brown in Crested Butte, Colin Zacharias in western Canada, Tom Wolfe in Canmore, Nino Guagliano in Golden, and Pavel Kunachowicz in Chamonix and Poland. Our team creates custom days in the mountains for everyone from passionate experts to mountain newcomers.

Browse through the site, check out Vetta adventures from Norway to Sicily, Alaska to Arizona. Heading into 2023, Vetta guides will be skiing and climbing in the Alps, the Las Vegas desert, the Svalbard archipelago, and there’s a Japan pow-mission in the works for 2024. Let’s do something together!
