Parom Camps’ backcountry lead guide, Markus Woertler, lives and breathes guiding and skiing powder. His passion for the mountains is matched only by his knowledge and experience.
For over a decade, Markus split his time between New Zealand’s South Island and Switzerland’s highest peaks. He has worked as a snow safety officer and avalanche forecaster, and now shares that expertise with our backcountry guests.
Markus has been based in Hokkaido over a dacade—first as a cat-ski lead guide near Niseko, then as a freeride specialist, helping guests discover the magic of Hokkaido powder. His love for ski touring means you’ll also have the chance to enjoy long, rewarding days—or even multi-day backcountry adventures. When he’s not guiding, Markus is usually out in the mountains himself, skiing, biking, or climbing.
