9.41, Jungfraujoch
Finsteraarhorn ski tour with mountain guide
The icon of the Bernese Alps: huge glaciers, easy and pretty scrambling to the summit, magnificent views and brilliant descents.
The Finsteraarhorn, a striking, dark peak in the middle of the impressive glacier world of the Bernese Alps, can be seen from afar. Its dark peak draws the eye from afar. Skis are the first choice for this tour, as the glaciers are wide! The summit ridge is exposed with some easy climbing, but it is never really difficult. The fantastic ski slopes and fantastic descents over the glaciers make up for this! Another highlight often crowns the last day: the tour to the Galmihorn. From this wonderful panoramic mountain, we look back to the Finsteraarhorn, which we conquered together, and gaze out over the Valais Alps. From the Galmihorn, we enjoy another marvellous descent in sulz snow. The last few metres on foot through the sparse pine forest is like arriving in spring. At the railway station, we look back on the fantastic days of ski touring together and enjoy a refreshing dip in the mountain stream.
Procedure and meeting place
Meeting point: 9.41 on the Jungfraujoch
Conclusion and journey home from Reckingen station in GomsTravel by cable car to the Jungfraujoch and tour to the Finsteraarhornhütte. Crossing the Grünhorn gap. Here we already enjoy a magnificent view of tomorrow's destination!
Ascent of the Finsteraarhorn and overnight stay in the same hut. The ascent leads over a short passage along large glaciers up to the Hugisattel. Here we deposit our skis and scramble over the summit ridge, secured by the mountain guide, to reach the imposing summit. The descent leads down the wide slopes. There are several variations here. We love this ski tour, there are so many cool, unknown downhill variants. We spend another cosy night in the Finsteraarhorn hut.
Crossing the Galmihorn and descent into Goms. This tour is another highlight. The ascent leads past large glaciers up to the summit. During the ascent you experience a magnificent sunrise from the profile of the Finsteraarhorn. The descent from the Galmihorn leads over large slopes down to Goms, where spring has already arrived in all its splendour. We cover the last few metres on foot, walking leisurely through the fragrant forests and green meadows.
