An challenging tour to the Passo/Forcelle Cristallo is a dream come true for everyone who loves thrilling descents. It begins just above the Schluderbach junction, and the most extensive variant finishes with a descent to Passo Tre Croci. Ascent starts along a shaded, gentle, rocky streambed leading into a grand alpine valley. You exit its narrow confines via a tight corridor through the rocks (on the left, to the north). Afterward, you cross a consistently steep, wide slope heading toward a choke point below the saddle.
Descent: Usually, you follow the same path used for the ascent. A very worthwhile alternative is descending on the south side. First, there’s a very steep section, which often has firn-like snow thanks to the sun. While skiing down the scree slopes, stay to the right, then go between the dwarf pines down to the saddle near Hotel Tre Croci (bus stop).

2. etapa 4denního skialpového přechodu Nockberge Trail vede z Innerkremsu na Turracher Höhe a je ze všech nejnáročnější - jak délkou, převýšenm tak i technickou náročností. Oblé kopce alpského pohoří Nockberge mají jedinou nevýhodu - vítr z jejich svahů často odfoukne sníh a je ho místy nedostatek. Po bezproblémovém výstupu na Königstuhl a Karlnock následuje sjezd do sedla Stangnock a pak po širokém hřebenu nahoru na Gregerlnock. Následující sjezd poměrně prudkým svahem má lavinový potenciál - buďte pozorní, v případě špatných podmínek sjíždějte po hřebenu do míst, kde je svah mírnější. Po sjezdu na alm následuje orientačně zapeklitá fáze - držte se striktně linie v GPS. Za potokem začíná výstup na Winkler Alm. Cesta na sjezdovku nevede přes les (pozor na stopy). Až dorazíte k sjezdovce, musíte ještě vystoupat k lanovce Schafalmbahn (na dohled) a po sjezdovce č.1 na sedlo Turracher Höhe.

Piz Palü 3882 m
Diavolezza Berghaus Bernina Alps Switzerland
- Length of ascent6,5 km
- ascent1180 m
- duration6,5-8,5 h

The Piz Palü with its characteristic three pillars is probably the most popular "not 4000" in the Alps. The exit from the Berghaus Diavolezza is ideal, it is also possible from the Bovalhütte. The key point for the ascent and descent is the passage of the Labyrinth between the Seraks. Continue over a relatively steep glacier to the ski depot. Then ascent with ice axe and crampons along the exposed summit ridge. The usual goal of ski mountaineers is the eastern summit - 3882 m.
