Hockenhorn - Gitzifurggu - Leukerbad

A magnificent ski tour with an ideal ascent-to-descent ratio of 780 metres of ascent to 2,040 metres of descent.

Stage 1: The tour starts at the mountain station "Gandegg" at the Lauchernalp ski resort and heads towards the glacier "Milibachgletscher" and onwards up to the Hockenhorn. As an option you can also take the Gletscherbahn gondola directly to the Hockenhorngrat. From here you will enjoy a fantastic view over the surrounding Valais and Bernese mountain panorama before setting out for the Lötschenpass Hut. Refuel at the Lötschenpass Hut for the next stage of this tour.

 

 

Stage 2: In the second stage, climb from the Lötschenpass Hut up to the Gitzifurggu and then savour the long descent to Leukerbad.
