Snowshoe Trekking
Duration: 3,5 bis 4 hrs
Price per person: 150.- CHF (min. 4 pers.)
Service: avalanche transceiver, snowshoes, climbing harness
Circumnavigate the “Hinter Allalin” in snowshoes in sunny, high Alpine terrain away from the crowds on the slopes. Take the Metro Alpin right up to the “Tunnel Window” (Stollenfenster). Then hike down over the glacier landscape covered in snow before a short climb up to the Brittania hut. Here you can enjoy a midday rest and a view over the isolated mountain world. If you like you can take a short detour to the “Kleine Allalin” and view Mattamark Lake and the imposing glacier ice avalanches. The return path to the Felskinn mountain station is easy to manage.

Snowshoe Hiking
Duration: 2 hrs
Price per person: 105.- CHF (min. 4 pers.)
Service: avalanche transceiver, snowshoes
If lots of fresh snow has fallen and the skiing areas are closed, then a snowshoe hike in the valley with a Saas-Fee Guide is on offer. Your guide knows the terrain and the prevailing snow and weather conditions best. The hike leads outside the village through a fairy tale winter forest and lets you enjoy the peace and purity of nature. A stop at a rustic inn ensures further delightful moments.
