Wilderness Splitboard Camp

Cat Boarding in Macedonia

Popova Šapka 7 Day Camp

9 RIDERS

£?? 4* Full Board + Cat Assisted Splitboarding

Future dates will be announced.

We've all seen the Everest style basecamps in Alaska, where the pro riders pick perfect lines from the comfort of their wilderness dome tent. Well now its time for you to taste a little of that life. We've partnered with Shar Outdoors to create a unique wilderness adventure package.

We'll be based out of Scardus, a 4* hotel in the heart of a secluded resort (Popova Sapka) in Northern Macedonia. You'll have access to the modern day essentials like Wi-fi, spa with swimming pool, and ample locally sourced food.

From our base camp we can walk over the road and jump in a snowcat for local assisted pow shredding days, or jump to more remote local resorts for bigger and more adventurous splitboard missions.

As we settle into the week we'll start planning our overnight mission. Shar Outdoors will transport us and our kit to the heart of the Macedonian National Park. From this staging area we'll carry out some shred strike missions, before relaxing to catch the sunset and then settling in for a night in the wild.

Once our overnight adventure is complete we'll head back for a recharge at base camp and then resume our cat and splitboard combo adventures.

This is a perfect course for those riders looking to nudge out of their traditional alps comfort zones and experience a taste of pro life in a unique and exciting location.

6 Nights 4* full board accommodation inc on snow lunch
1 Night wilderness dome tent camping adventure

Splitboarding in Macedonia

What the riders think...

"In terms of snow the week got better and better with the cats constantly seeking out newer and bigger sick lines with some of the most fun terrain I've ever ridden. Testament to Maverix in the way this has been captured all week in a truly professional manner! The last day was my chance to try splitboarding for the first time. The descent was something else and unbelievable that the week could get better, it did."

"Cat Boarding in Macedonia gets 5 stars from me. James brought together a great group of people and on every single run we were able to put down our own lines. Each day we got around 5500m of descent and in my opinion this is the best way to maximise off-piste riding time. Our final day was a cat assisted splitboard adventure giving us access to a fabulous run into an inaccessible valley. James had the drone out filming us 😊. Every day we were out from 9-5 and picnic lunch was provided. The hotel bent over backwards to accommodate our every wish and the cats left directly from the hotel car park. I’ve booked to go again next year. Woohoo!"
