The Corvatsch is probably well known to most freeriders, as its Northface forms the competition terrain of the Engadin Snow Contest. This highly demanding and selective terrain is a clear no-fall zone, requiring the highest orientation skills due to the risk of falls and rockfalls, and demands a careful prior study of the route, ideally while having coffee or hot chocolate from the terrace of the middle station. The approach via the ridge to point 3164 after a short north-facing descent from the mountain station already requires surefootedness. From here, it is best to head in the direction of the middle cable car pole, from where the slope opens up.
