Ski tour | Säntis round tour
Grandiose round tour around the mountain in eastern Switzerland: imposing limestone cliffs, lots of downhill and playful terrain - finally with fresh snow!
The Säntisrunde is one of the classics in eastern Switzerland. It's great that it's snowing again and the tour is worthwhile! The tour starts on the Säntis summit and we first descend a beautiful 1000 metres in altitude! An ascent leads us through the exciting limestone mountains from Säntis to the Rotstein Pass and from there down another 1000 metres in altitude. The last part of the descent will be done by taxi.
