Dive into another world on the beautiful and not signposted snowshoe tour from Raschainas holiday home to Alp Fops.
easy
Distance 2.4 km
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.
