Itinerary description

An ascent of the Alphubel 4206m from the Längfluh berghaus in the Saas-Fee ski area. Ascent mostly on skis but with a few 100 vertical metres of 50 degree climbing with crampons, descent from summit all on skis. Magnificent ski back down.

    Nice route, thanks! I'll try to follow it on Easter. The altimetry, though, might be wrong... I guess your positive climbing was around 1,300 meters, right?

    You are right. 1300-1400m up. I’ve no idea how it came out at 700m. Great route, enjoy!
