Day ski tour medium to demanding: Oberalpstock - Staldenfirn - Bristen
Description
With the help of the Disentis mountain railroads and a moderate amount of effort, we climb the beautiful ski mountain. On the descent into the Maderanertal, there are 2500 meters of altitude to enjoy! A magnificent experience for sure. Program: We meet at 08.45 am in front of the entrance to the Disentis 3000 cable car valley station in Disentis/GR. We take the cable cars of the Disentis 3000 ski area up to the end of the Pez Ault ski lift (2833m). Now we put on our skins and climb up to below the Piz Ault (2780m). A traverse followed by a steep rocky passage, where we have to carry our skis on our rucksacks, leads us onto a rocky ridge. Now we can already see today's summit destination, the Oberalpstock. Another traverse follows, this time on the north side of Piz Ault. A short descent leads us to the dwindling Brunnifirn. Depending on the conditions and time of day, we climb over the glacier to the summit of the Oberalpstock (3327m), approx. 2 ½ hours, or we climb the northern winter summit (3287m), which also offers us a wonderful panorama. The north-facing descent over the Staldenfirn into the Maderanertal is one of the most beautiful and longest descents in Central Switzerland, with almost 2500 meters of altitude difference! The long downhill route offers wide, steep slopes, passages with shrubs, a wildly romantic mountain valley and fantastic scenery. We finish our enjoyable adventure tour at around 3 p.m. at the Golzern cable car valley station (832 m) in Bristen/UR. General information: Requirements: The tour is technically medium to demanding.
