    Ski Touring on the Hählekopf in Kleinwalsertal

    This mountain has beckoned us for a while now. The 2,058-metre high Hählekopf marks the westernmost point of the Schwarzwassertal and is the perfect place to enjoy a fabulous ski tour. The conditions happened to be just right, so we set off on a ski tour to the summit.

    Reunion on the Gottesacker plateau

    “I know you said, it beforehand – but it’s huge!” Eliane can’t take her eyes off the Ifen. And I’m sitting next to her on the chair lift with a broad “told you so” grin on my face. The Ifen is a safe bet if you want to impress people. I’m also grinning because I know that’s just the first of many “Wows!” to come.
