It is the insider tip in the evening par excellence. The tour starts at the holiday house Raschainas, ends at Alp Fops and leads you through untouched forests away from civilization. When you arrive at Alp Fops, you have the best view of the high valley and the starry sky from the terrace. Before you start the descent to Tgantieni (approx. 10 min), a fondue in the original hut dating back to 1878 is recommended. (Reservation is required in the evening)

Author’s recommendation

For groups or organisations, a fine fondue is served in the evening at Alp Fops on request.

Abgelegene traumhafte Schneeschuhtour. Zeit je nachdem mehr einplanen, wenn es wie heute frisch geschneit hat. Rückweg am Besten über Berghotel Tgiantieni und ab da den Winterwanderweg.
