The Ducan Gletscher is a summit with a wonderful view of the Piz Kesch and especially the Piz Ela. The ski tour starts in Monstein, where the highest brewery in Europe is located. The Fanezfurgga saddle leads to valley with a striking mountain. The end of the climb up is usually with ice axe and crampons. The descent through the Ducantal valley is oriented to the north and leads skiers into the Sertigtal valley. The route can also be done in the opposite direction. It is advisable to undertake the tour with the support of public transport.

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).
