Ski Mountaineering in the Bernese Oberland
April 16, 2012 - April 21, 2012
This multi-day tour may not be quite as famous as the 'Classic Haute Route', but it is at least as spectacular.
Starting in the famous resort of Grindelwald, we will take the trams up to the Kleine Scheidegg, up through the Eiger Tunnels and on to the Jungfrau Joch at 11,000 feet. From here we will work our way south to the Valais over the course of six days.
Not only will you be touring on the biggest glaciers in the Alps, ski in the immediate vicinity of the Eiger, Moench and Jungfrau, you will also get to summit several 4000 meter peaks (Finsteraarhorn, Fiescherhorn Aletschhorn). For a week you will be surrounded by rock and ice in the most alpine environment of Europe.
Unlike on many other ski traverses, you will do some climbing on easy but exposed ridges and get introduced to the beauty of ski mountaineering. Conditions allowing, you will summit a peak almost every day.
