Alpine summit and beautiful skiing terrain: 700 metres ascent, 2400 metres descent!

Technics

Endurance

With some fresh snow from Thursday, we undertake this beautiful tour before the weekend rush! The tour starts at the highest point of the Pizol cable cars and begins with a first short ascent and a short descent into the secluded mountain basin of the Pizol. The last ascent is somewhat steeper and the summit ascent is on foot. The alpine summit ascent is optional. The descent is long and takes us back to the Pizol ski area and the main valley of Chur!
