Round tour Bannalp
Fresh snow and great ski touring terrain!
On Thursday we get another good load of snow and on Friday it's nice weather - perfect for a round tour in the already snow-covered Bannalp. Depending on the conditions, we'll choose our exact route on the spot, but we'll definitely look for the great ski slopes and if there's enough snow, we'll ski down into the valley, where there are grass mats as a base. The forests and mountains will be covered in fresh snow and it will be a great start to the Christmas holidays! We will undertake a circular tour with an ascent of around 800 metres and a descent of around 1400 metres. Let's enjoy this pre-Christmas present together!
