Through lonely high mountain landscapes with impressive descents.
Greina level
Crossing the Greina plain and climbing Piz Medel is one of the most impressive skiing adventures in Graubünden. Away from the hustle and bustle, we experience four intense days full of tranquillity, vastness and unspoilt mountain scenery. From Curaglia or Fuorns we climb up to the idyllically situated Medelserhütte, where we are warmly welcomed by Verena and Jochen. Both are passionate hosts and excellent cooks. The homemade cake tastes particularly good here with a view through the large panoramic window. We stay at this special place for two nights. A highlight of the tour is the ascent of Piz Medel over glaciers and a firn ridge with great views. The combination of technical ease and magnificent scenery makes this tour particularly rewarding. On the third day, the trail leads us across the lonely Greina plain - an alpine high plateau with an almost mystical aura - to the Terrihütte, where we end the day in a cosy atmosphere. Finally, we climb Piz Ner, which rewards us once again with a marvellous view and a varied descent into Val Lumnezia. Our taxi is waiting at the bottom of the valley. For the journey home, we have many strong impressions, new experiences and the feeling of community that such a crossing brings with it.
We meet at Disentis railway station and travel together by taxi to the starting point. We start our tour in Curaglia or Fuorns, depending on the conditions.
We start together with the ascent to the beautifully situated Medelserhütte. The approach is through quiet, wide terrain with the first views of the wild surroundings.
We set off early towards the glacier basin of the Glatscher da Medel. Over wide firn fields and a gentle glacier ascent, we reach the firn ridge, which leads us to the summit in an easy but impressive climb. The descent back to the hut is long, rewarding and, with a bit of luck, in perfect powder snow.
A day full of contrasts: from the high alpine glacier world of the previous day, today we immerse ourselves in the lonely Greina plain. A pristine high valley with wide hollows, couloirs and surprising terrain. Depending on the conditions, there are many variations for ascents and descents. Our destination is the cosy Terri hut, where we spend the night.
Our final stage takes us over the Piz Ner, a quiet ski summit with great views. The last turns of this traverse take us through beautiful ski terrain down into Val Lumnezia to Vrin. Our taxi is waiting here and we can look back on a very special adventure.
The taxi awaits us in the valley and together we set off on the return journey to Disentis.
Bergschaft tours and courses are conducted in German as standard. However, our mountain guides speak good English, as do many of the participants. If you speak English, you are of course very welcome. Depending on the tour, it may be worth asking us in advance whether the guide and the group are comfortable speaking English.
