IMPORTANT: Before embarking on a ski tour or snowshoe hike, it is essential to carefully study the weather conditions and the avalanche report, or consult with experts. Avalanche safety equipment is mandatory!
The area around the Kreuzberg Pass and the Sesto alpine pastures is a true paradise for snowshoe hikers and ski tourers.


ATTENTION:
Snowshoe hikes and ski tours should only be undertaken by experienced and well-trained mountaineers. Always consider the avalanche risk – carrying complete avalanche safety equipment (avalanche transceiver, probe, and shovel) is mandatory. Check the avalanche report and weather conditions before every tour. Those without sufficient experience should only join such tours in the company of a certified mountain guide.
