Igloo building Teamevent
Building an igloo with your own hands - the team event in the snow
With the Montée Outdoor professionals you will learn the right technique how to build an igloo out of snow blocks. Experience an unforgettable teambuilding day with a lot of group dynamics.
Our igloo building workshop promotes and demands real teamwork
Like the Eskimos at the North Pole, you will have the opportunity to build a real igloo under the expert guidance of a Montée Outdoor Trainer. At the igloo building event, your team will have an expert at their side and give the participants a fantastic, icy building lesson. With the help of this instruction and the appropriate tools, the participants build their own Igloo in small groups. After approx. 2.5 hours the original Eskimo dwelling stands in the winter landscape directly with their desire location in Salzburg, Tirol and in the remaining Austria, as well as in Bavaria and South Tyrol.
The Igloo event in the middle of the winter landscape is a great experience for every outdoor fan. The Igloo Workshop is in addition also still another genuine team experience, which fodert and promotes with much fun genuine teamwork.
The igloo building can be combined with a guided snowshoe hike or with a snow sculpture or ice sculpture workshop and thus offers you a real winter highlight!
Building a stable igloo together is fun and strengthens the team spirit
Not everywhere in the world houses are made of concrete and stone. Depending on the continent or country, the locals also use wood, straw or other materials, and in northern climes even snow and ice! The Eskimos, also called Inuit, who live in Greenland and northern Canada, have a long tradition of building igloos, even though this type of dwelling is now almost completely obsolete. They developed a sophisticated technique in the construction of the snow house and were able to build an igloo within a few hours. Step by step, blocks of snow and ice became a cozy little house that offered the Eskimos shelter from harsh weather conditions. However, you don't have to travel to the north to build an igloo yourself and perhaps even sleep in it afterwards. There are also igloo events in Austria, where igloos are built.
Before the participants of the Igloo Building Worrkshop start to build an igloo under guidance, they must of course first learn how building igloos actually works. There is therefore a bit of theory beforehand. To ensure that the igloo is stable and does not collapse again immediately, proven techniques are used to provide stability. A Montée Outddorguide will explain to participants how the snow is prepared and what steps need to be taken when the blocks of ice are assembled into an igloo. The first step in building a stable igloo is to make enough blocks of ice. These are then stacked and assembled one by one until the finished igloo is in place. After the work is done, the teams can look at the igloos together and, with a final drone photo, keep this unforgettable event in their memories forever.
