Pfluwe Alphubel 2-day ski tour private from Zermatt

This beautiful ski tour leads you to the Alphubel at over 4000 m above sea level. You will reach the destination in the company of an experienced mountain guide with a 2-day tour. You will trudge with your skis through the fresh powder snow and enjoy the fresh alpine air.

Day 1: The tour starts at 08:15 am at the Sunnegga valley station. After getting to know each other briefly, you will drive together to the Rothorn station. From there you take the cable car to Fluhalp, where the ski tour starts. On the first day you will climb to Pfulwe and from there you will ski down to Täschalp. There you will enjoy a delicious dinner and spend the night in the hut.

Day 2: At 04:00 the next day the tour starts up to the Alphubel. The ascent takes about five hours and is quite demanding in terms of both technique and fitness. At the summit you will be rewarded with a unique panorama of the surrounding mountains. After a break at the summit, you will return together to the valley to Täsch.
