Bärenhorn in the remotest Safiental

Those arriving by public transport start the tour by carrying skis for about 800 meters to the parking lot at the small reservoir. From there, you can easily enter via the winter hiking trail. At the very back, aptly called "Z`Hinderst," the valley narrows and becomes more alpine. The route passes under the "Chrachen" and climbs the very steep slopes up to the high valley at Lengegga. Now you see for the first time towards the summit and know that it is still far to the goal—namely about 600 meters of elevation gain. Those who have an eye for the beautiful ski touring slopes know how rewarding the summit ascent is. The considerable height of the Bärenhorn now allows a similarly fantastic view of the mountains of Graubünden and the southern Alps.

The descent follows the ascent route. It offers great slopes that you will not forget quickly. Often you will still find powdery slopes here when other tours are already dominated by crust.
