The sport of skiing began in Arosa and the surrounding area at the end of the 19th century. What was more natural than founding a ski club? This took place as early as 1903, at the same time as the Swiss Ski Association (now: Swiss Ski). At the center were joint ski tours, which at that time were a prerequisite for descents: there were no mountain lifts or even ski lifts anywhere. What started in 1903 with 9 members and an annual fee of CHF 2.– is now the Ski Club Arosa with about 670 members.
According to its statutes, the Ski Club Arosa aims to "promote snow sports in all areas of performance". We place special emphasis on targeted youth development. More than 80 young people regularly take advantage of the JO offers. Athletes from the Ski Club Arosa have repeatedly made the leap into a national squad or even returned as Olympic champions or world champions.
In addition to youth development, professionally organized events are another focus of our club activities. Well-known races such as the Dreigipfelrennen, as well as World Cup races and even the World Cup final in 1978, were successfully held. Today, FIS races and regional events regularly feature in the annual program.
The annual club race and the New Year's descent, the General Meeting, and many shared hours in the club's own Hörnlihütte serve to foster camaraderie and coziness among club members.
The complete history of the Ski Club Arosa was compiled in an exciting book on the occasion of the 100-year celebration. Interested parties can contact info@skiclubarosa.ch.
