Downhill-orientated ski tour above Lake Walen
Snow-covered forests, views of Lake Walen and fresh powder snow!
It's also snowing heavily in eastern Switzerland and the sun is even shining on Wednesday! So we set off on a downhill ski tour above Lake Walen. We conquer the first few metres in altitude with the small but excellent gondola lift. We then continue through the idyllic snow-covered forest until we reach more open terrain. By now the sun will be out and we can enjoy the marvellous view of Lake Walen and the Churfirsten. After a comfortable 700 metres in altitude, we reach the summit of the Nüenchamm, which offers a magnificent descent. We whizz down together in deep snow and enjoy the fantastic slope gradient. Depending on our mood, we can climb up again or tackle the last few metres of the descent. Because thanks to the cable car, we'll be able to descend 1200 metres in just 700 metres!
