An IFMGA/UIAGM mountain guiding company

The mountains have always been a symbol of freedom to me. As a certified IFMGA/UIAGM mountain guide and B.E.E.S. certified ski instructor, based in the Chamonix Mont Blanc valley, I spend my time sharing the magic of these mountains with my clients. I am a passionate professional specialized in guiding all types of mountain activities within the Mont Blanc range and around the world. Steep ski camps, off-piste skiing, backcountry skiing, splitboarding adventures, Enduro mountain bike trips, ice climbing, technical mountaineering routes, extreme DH lines and high altitude ski expeditions are only a few of the guiding services I am able to provide.

Founded in 2006

Founded in 2006 by Fred BERNARD et Emily BERNARD-LIEVENS, Peakpowder grew from a desire to welcome skiers in relaxed environment, to offer high level technical skiing products and a personalized guiding service. Whatever your level, Peakpowder is keen to help you improve. The goal is to help you get the most pleasure out of your skiing experience, so that you can enjoy the mountains even more!

Private UIAGM (IFMGA) mountain guiding services that focus on meeting your objectives and are geared to your technical ability level.

I do my very best to personalize each day, making your mountain experience special. I live and work in the Mont Blanc range and know its secrets, but I also love to travel and explore the mountains of the world. Tailor made skiing, mountain biking and climbing trips are what Peakpowder is all about. I speak both French and English, allowing for easy communication with most nationalities. My knowledge of the snow and mountain terrain is considerable and I have guided around the world in diverse mountain ranges.


My moto: push your limits, achieve your goals, live your dreams. Ski, climb and ride clean lines! Never stop riding!
