British Backcountry and Skiing in the UK - We Chat to Amy Marwick

April 06, 2021 • Bella Syme & Emma Woodward • Season 1 • Episode 12

This week we were joined by the lovely Amy Marwick. Amy talks to us about all things backcountry and we get the inside scope on skiing in the UK.
Amy is a Scottish born skier who was a ski instructor and loves her ski touring and backcountry skiing. She also has her own ski & yoga retreat business and is now a freelance writer and copywriter for some well known ski brands and publications.

This season we saw people enjoying skiing in the UK more than ever - and while we weren’t able to get out to the Alps or further afield, we were gifted with plenty of snow in the UK in Jan & Feb which was a real treat for those living in areas where they could ski.

Amy has a huge passion for backcountry skiing and after a winter where the popularity of backcountry skiing in the UK soared, we loved picking her brains about it!
