To the dates and registration

The freeride Mecca of Davos is located in the centre of six ski areas. Thanks to the state-of-the-art mountain railway infrastructure, we can easily reach the high starting points. After short ascents on touring skis, we reach the varied descents. One of our favourite areas for touring! Here we still find long untracked slopes and great descents. Some of them lead into a side valley, from where we return by bus. The weather is perfect on Saturday and thanks to the touring skis we can reach new slopes with great skiing terrain.
