Ski tour Gulderstock

There is beautiful snow in the Alps and the northern slopes of the Gulderstock are sheltered from the wind and stay beautiful for a long time. The weather is great and the snow lasts right down to the valley. So on Wednesday we go on one of the coolest ski tours in Glarnerland. We make the most of the beautiful snow from the week and go on a downhill ski tour in Glarnerland in the best weather. We take the cable car to the Weissenberge and climb up through the snow-covered forest to the Gulderstock. This has a short, exciting summit ridge. We chose this destination because it has gigantic north-facing slopes for the descent. A 1400 metre descent with a cool slope gradient awaits us and we will ski a total of 1700 metres. For Rolf this is his home area, he will find perfect lines here for a long time and will organise a fantastic day with you!

The tour takes place, meeting point, 8.45 in Matt valley station.
