Prättigau

A freshly snow-covered landscape, fine powder and enough snow to playfully dance on our skis between the trees in the Prättigau forest and have great fun. This will probably be one of those days when your grin gets bigger and bigger and you infect others with your good mood after the tour because you come back home so fulfilled. Due to the unstable weather conditions and the high avalanche situation, we seek out the deep snow between sparse trees and contrasting terrain. We make around 800 vertical metres of ascent and significantly more turns and vertical metres of descent. You will find out the exact meeting point in Prättigau by 6 pm tomorrow, Thursday.
