Ready for a real challenge? If you are acclimatized, physically fit and experienced in ski touring, the Alphubel is the perfect objective.
This is true alpinism – roped up with your Saas-Fee Guide, you will navigate through deep crevasses and ascend a steep couloir. After several kick turns on ski crampons, you will reach the summit.
The Alphubel is one of the most demanding ski tours in the Saas Valley. Your reward: an incredible 2400-meter fall-line descent all the way down to Saas-Fee.
