A high altitude ski traverse through the Jungfrau and Eiger region of the Berner Oblerand high in the Swiss Alps.

This is some of the most spectacular alpine ski touring terrain on the planet in the heart of Switzerland. The Berner ski tour is not very affected by snow pack amounts due to the high altitude nature of the ski touring. We ski high up on some of Switzerland’s largest glaciers for the bulk of the ski touring.

Beginning and ending Grindelwald, Switzerland.
