Start of the season in Glarus

80cm of fresh snow forecast & sun - what more could you want for your first turns?

Endurance

There's a lot of snow on Thursday and Friday. So we're going on our first tour of the season! We head to an area in Glarnerland where we can start high up and certainly get enough ski turns in. Certainly more downhill metres than uphill and a grassy base. We will let you know exactly where after you have registered.

We remain flexible and decide at short notice where the most snow has actually fallen. We will communicate again on Friday evening where exactly we are going!

One thing is for sure, if we get this much snow, we'll have a great start to the season on Saturday!
