To the dates and registration

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. We ski as long as there is snow, and from there the taxi will pick us up and take us back.
