The Ski Club has announced it has acquired specialist mountain adventure company Mountain Tracks.

The two companies will continue to operate under their respective brand names. The Ski Club has run a holiday programme since the 1970s, featuring skiing weeks and weekends providing group holidays matching skiers of a similar ability.

Mountain Tracks was set up by Nick Parks in 2000 and runs off-piste skiing holidays, hut-to-hut ski tours, mountain and avalanche awareness training courses. In the summer season it offers high altitude glacier trekking and alpine mountaineering.

Frank McCusker, chief executive, Ski Club of Great Britain said: “Our members now have even more opportunity to experience truly unique adventures on snow. Members on a Mountain Tracks or Ski Club Freshtracks holiday have access to the most highly respected and qualified IFMGA* mountain guides and instructors.

“As we continue to grow our philosophy remains: great experiences for our members with small group sizes and low member to guide ratios. Whether you ski with our guides or instructors a Ski Club holiday will provide you with the skills and confidence you need to take on the mountain.”

Nick Parks added: “This is a really exciting development for Mountain Tracks, I believe our winter programme ideally complements Ski Club Freshtracks’s and gives us the opportunity to offer our customers new adventures both in summer and winter.”
