Details

Description

The starting point for this variation is the Pischa mountain station, where the ascent towards Pischahorn is tackled. This first ascent is relatively short and without difficulties. This already tempts the first great descent early in the day. The wide slopes down to the Vereinatal offer wonderful variations. About 1,100 meters of altitude can be easily and enjoyably conquered!

Having arrived in Vereinatal, the tour continues to Alp Novai and then relatively flat to Monbiel, where Alp Garfiun offers a well-deserved place to stop.

Hidden Gem

The Alp Novai and Alp Garfiun offer two great places to stop.

Safety Note

Anyone going off-piste acts entirely at their own risk and is outside the liability area of the mountain railways. The yellow-marked freeride slopes are secured but not prepared or monitored. They are only to be ridden when open. We recommend checking the open slopes, the SLF avalanche bulletin, and the weather forecast. All liability is excluded.

This freeride route is to be understood as a general directional guide. Depending on conditions, descent routes must be assessed and adapted individually. No guarantee can be given for the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of the information.

Freeriding in open terrain is done at your own risk. Every freerider and tourer is strongly advised to prepare thoroughly, plan routes, and obtain current information on snow and avalanche conditions. Avalanche report and snow info: www.slf.ch

Any liability for accidents resulting from the use of the published information and route details is expressly excluded.

In case of doubt, accompaniment by experienced mountain guides is strongly recommended: www.bergfuehrer-davosklosters.ch

Equipment

We recommend the avalanche training center before departure.

At Jakobshorn near the Fuxägufer mountain station in Davos, the correct use of the avalanche transceiver (LVS) can be practiced under realistic conditions. The training area consists of a zone of 100 x 100 m on moderately steep terrain and thus represents a realistic avalanche cone. Use of the training area is free. You must bring your own LVS and avalanche probe.
