Silvretta Haute Route
The best introduction to ski touring in the Alps. The Silvretta Haute Route links gentle, easy ski terrain with comfortable huts on the border of Austria and Switzerland, with the chance to climb the Dreiländerspitze (3,200 m) and Piz Buin (3,312 m) along the way.
The Silvretta Haute Route is the perfect first hut-to-hut ski tour. It pairs gentle, easy terrain on both the climbs and the descents with comfortable huts and an easy way out at every stage. As a fun bonus, you tour back and forth between Austria and Switzerland the whole way.
Trip Highlights
- Starting in Ischgl, one of the most famous après-ski towns in the Alps
- Touring back and forth across the Austria and Switzerland border
- Comfortable huts with sunny balconies
- The chance to summit the Dreiländerspitze (3,200 m) by a short, fun, exposed ridge
- An optional climb of Piz Buin (3,312 m). Yes, the one from the sunscreen!
- A long final run down to the mountain village of Galtür
Life in the Huts
Click out of your skis onto a sunny balcony for a cold beer, then settle into huts that feel more like mountain inns. Several huts make great bases for a second night, opening up more touring options nearby.
Who This Trip Is For
Skiers new to ski touring who want a real hut-to-hut experience on friendly terrain. Most days are moderate, with longer optional summit days for those who want more. Piz Buin involves glacier travel and a scramble, depending on conditions.
