The first ski tour enthusiasts meet early in the morning in the deepest part of the Pflerschtal valley. They slowly move up higher and higher in small groups, leaving behind forests and overlooking a gorgeous white landscape surrounded by snowy peaks. The only audible sound is the crunch of fresh snow under their skis, otherwise silence reigns supreme. The sun leaves light shadows and sharp silhouettes on the glistening white slopes. The surrounding mountains are majestic. Every mountaineer knows that it is important to respect nature, because it is always dangerous to go on a ski tour on the alpine terrain. The white snow blanket promises fresh powder to glide back down on: all the more reason to walk up the steep mountain all the way to the summit cross. This is exactly what makes ski tours so attractive: to conquer a panoramic view on your own, far off the groomed slopes, surrounded by untouched nature. Then to draw a line down into the valley on the hardly earned and well-deserved descent. It feels like floating through air when you glide over the powder snow. When you come across the hustle and bustle around the ski lifts in the valley, you know deep down that it was right to set off early at dawn and alone. It was worth every drop of sweat. Ski touring is a passion that – once it has taken a hold of you – will never go away. Our hiking guide Robert Alpögger has also fallen for this passion.
