Description

This ski tour starts directly in Juf on the southern parking lot. From the village, the young Jufer Rhine is first crossed. Then a southerly and ladder ascent to the Schinetabach. Follow over the northeast ridge to point 2650 and on to the north ridge. Once on the north ridge, head south up to the summit. At the summit, a breathtaking view of the Bergalga Valley and the Avers awaits you. Following the rather shorter tour, alpine skiing in the Avers ski area is a good option. For refreshment at lunchtime, there are a wide variety of small restaurants and hotels in the Avers high valley, which will spoil you with regional delicacies. You will also find an egg shop in the high valley as well as small farm shops, which are run by the regional farmers. Due to the high location in the Avers, the snow conditions are usually given well into spring for ski tours.

Hidden Gem

The Alpenrose Juf offers culinary delights after the ski tour.
