Tödi ski mountaineering tour | Ski mountaineering tours on and around the Tödi - the Glarus Haute Route

In an impressive glacier world around and on the Tödi.

Technics

Endurance

The Glarnerland offers perfect ski touring conditions at the beginning of April and we use these conditions to get to know the Glarus high mountains better. We prepare for the ascent of the Tödi. In the days leading up to this, we do some great tours on the Clariden and the Schärhorn. On these tours, the mountain guide will show you what to look out for and give you valuable tips and tricks. From the well-maintained Clariden hut, we cross the Clariden and Hüfifirn and enjoy the brilliant location of the Planura hut with its unique evening atmosphere. On the lonely Hüfifirn we enjoy the tour to the Schärhorn and cross the imposing north side of the Tödi to the rustic Fridolinshütte. There we start the crowning finale on the Tödi. The Tödi is not only a prominent viewing summit, but also offers some brilliant downhill options. If the conditions allow, we head into the secluded Val Gliems, where some exciting passages await us.

Spent 4 days on the Glarus Haute Route with Bergschaft over Easter and had a really great time. The tour was super organised throughout and was led passionately and without any hectic pace. Looking forward to the next tour :)
