Description

Hoi hikers,


Grab your snowshoes, pack a thermos of warm tea, and let the Rätikon show you what winter is really about. 

Standing proudly at 2,817 meters, the Sulzfluh is a winter highlight. Its broad slopes and gentle approach routes make it a perfect snowshoe destination for adventurous hikers. As you climb, the world opens up—peaks upon peaks, the crisp crunch of snow underfoot, and that unbeatable feeling of being high above the valley.

Reaching the summit plateau feels like stepping onto the roof of the Alps. The panorama is simply unforgettable.
