ski mountaineering with alphölzer skis

Thanks to the cable car, we quickly gain altitude and can concentrate fully on the essentials: a varied ski tour with brilliant descents and turns in firn and slush and a magnificent mountain panorama with the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. From the mountain station on the Schilthorn, we embark on a somewhat adventurous ski tour. We cross a ridge, for which we tie on our skis and the mountain guide abseils you down in 1-2 places. We then take a first beautiful descent in the Sulz before climbing up to the Hundshore. The view that awaits us is spectacular: the north faces of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau on one side and the lake landscape on the other. Afterwards, we enjoy a great, long descent in the Sulz, then head up for a short counter-climb before descending to Mürren and from there taking the cable car back to the starting point. A truly magnificent, adventurous day awaits us!

      We reach the Schilthorn, Piz Gloria, with cable car support. From there, the route is somewhat exposed over the ridge, for which we tie on our skis and the mountain guide will abseil you safely coached with the rope in 1-2 places. Afterwards, a beautiful firn/sulz descent on south-facing slopes awaits us. We ski up and ascend to the Hundshore. The view is unique. We enjoy the panoramic view of the summit before enjoying a long descent to the Rotstockhütte and a short ascent back to the starting point.
