Sulzflue im Winter

2-day touring course and overnight stay at Berghaus Alpenrösli

This tour is aimed at participants with an intermediate to advanced level and confident skiing or splitboarding technique. The focus is on touring. In the evening we can look at the tour planning, risk management and the evaluation of the tour together. Touring in the Rätikon is very popular. There are so many possibilities and in great surroundings. From north, south, east or west slopes to gentle grassy peaks and wild rocky regions.

The top tours:

  • The Chrüz near St. Antönien is a first-class panoramic mountain. It offers fantastic views of the Sulz- and Drusenfluh.
  • The Eggberg is just as suitable as a group activity as it is as an introductory tour for the first day.
  • The Girenspitz is a beautiful tour with predominantly moderate to moderately steep passages and individual downhill options on highly structured slopes.
  • Hasenflüeli with its shady, medium-steep slopes often provide great downhill fun.
  • At the Rotspitz, on one side the beautiful gentle grassy peaks with their magnificent alpine pastures, on the other side the wild rocky region.
  • The routes on Schafberg and Girenspitz are among the most beautiful pleasure tours in St. Antönien.

    The mountain adventure harbors risks. No tour takes place without the essential safety equipment – avalanche transceiver, probe and shovel.
    This equipment can be hired from Radical or another provider.
    Airbag and helmet are not obligatory.

    Risk management on tours: Safety has top priority.
    Weather and conditions determine whether the tour goes ahead.
    The tour may have to be postponed or adapted at short notice, at no additional cost to you.

    The avalanche danger cannot be assessed in absolute terms, but the risk on ski and splitboard tours can be calculated through targeted risk management.
    This requires continuous consideration and measures.
