Selected alternatives for you

An easy ski route in the Flüelatal. The gentle ascent to Baslersch Chopf (2,629 m above sea level) and the short but rewarding descent also delight beginners.

The Baslersch Chopf and Sentisch Horn (2,827 m above sea level) share the same start. Depending on conditions and form, you can also decide on either peak. From the Tschuggen parking lot, the ascent initially follows the pass road to Wägerhus. Here you leave the road and reach the large plain via a short steep slope. Then continue upwards over the long plateau, keeping northwest and crossing the entire plain. It gets a bit steeper now. Over the Gulgerigen Furgga (2,571 m above sea level) you reach the summit of Baslersch Chopf. The descent first follows the ascent route over the plain. Shortly before Tällichopf (2,342 m above sea level), the ascent route is left and you can ski the slope directly down to the pass road.

Author’s recommendation

After the route, the Gasthaus zum Tschuggen is recommended for refreshments.

Safety information

Anyone going off-piste acts entirely at their own risk and is outside the liability area of the mountain railways. The yellow-marked freeride pistes are secured but not groomed and not controlled. They should only be ridden when they are open. We recommend checking the open pistes, the SLF avalanche bulletin, and the weather forecast. All liability is excluded.

This freeride route is to be understood as a general direction guide. Depending on conditions, descent routes must be assessed and adapted independently. No guarantee can be given for the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of the information.

Freeriding in open terrain is at your own risk. Every freerider and ski tourer is strongly advised to prepare thoroughly, plan routes, and obtain up-to-date information on snow and avalanche conditions. Avalanche report and snow info: www.slf.ch

All liability for accidents resulting from the use of the published information and route details is rejected.

In case of doubt, accompaniment by experienced mountain guides is strongly recommended: www.bergfuehrer-davosklosters.ch

Equipment

We recommend the avalanche training center before the descent.

At Jakobshorn near the Fuxägufer mountain station in Davos, the correct use of the avalanche transceiver (LVS) can be practiced under realistic conditions. The training area consists of a 100 x 100 m zone in moderately steep terrain and thus represents a realistic avalanche cone. Use of the training area is free of charge. You must bring your own LVS and avalanche probe.
