St. Antönien, the first mountaineering village in Switzerland, is a true Eldorado for snowshoe hikers. The tour destinations are rich in variety and lead through beautiful, snowy winter landscapes. The snowshoe week starts on Monday at 8.50 a.m. in St. Antönien Platz. During four days we enjoy snowshoe hikes which start directly from the village. Since we know the area like the back of our hand, there is no rigid tour program. Every day we flexibly choose the most suitable and beautiful tour based on the small group, the avalanche and weather situation. We spend the night in an accommodation of your choice in St. Antönien with half board.
