Description
This ski tour starts at the Furggsattel mountain station. From there, it takes an hour to reach the entry point for the winter via ferrata “La Traversata”. With your skis on your backpack, you then climb the via ferrata – this takes about an hour – until reaching the historic Furggen mountain station (3,500 metres). To finish off, strap your skis back on and enjoy a 1,500 metre-long freeride descent to Italian Breuil-Cervinia, with the south face of the Matterhorn behind you all the way.
- Climb rock and ice with skis on your backpack (and crampons)
- Only for confident alpinists with a head for heights
