The Dreiherrnspitze is a spectacular, complex and challenging glacier ski tour. Especially difficult is its length, glacial cracks and terrain break at the end. First, it is easy to climb glacier the Südl. Malhamkees to Regentörl saddle. After a short downhill northwards to the Umbalkees Glacier, the traverse between the cracks and then to the Althauskees. Relatively steep slope to difficult terrain break (depending on snow conditions). After overcoming it, there is only 200 high meters in easy terrain. Downhill same track as ascent.

Cresta Bianca je fantasická a náročná túra v masivu Cristallo. Po nástupu u hospůdky Cimabanche / Im Gemärk na rozhraní Südtirol a Veneto se stoupá členitým žlabem Val Pra de Vecia ve stínu severního svahu. Po dlouhém prudkém výstupu následuje traverz východním směrem do sedla Forcella Verde a dlouhý, ale přehledný výstup kotlem Graol de Forame až do sedla Forcella Granda. Odtud v mačkách na nedaleký vrchol Cresta Bianca. Pokud se na začátku sjezdu ze sedla budete držet vpravo, dostanete se do sedla s velkolepým výhledem na Tre Cime i kotel Val Fonda. Další sjezd kopíruje výstupovou trasu.

After Tödi, Clariden is the second most popular ski tour in the Glarus Alps. The ascent leads along the gentle Claridenfirn glacier from Claridenhütte to the foot of Clariden and then through a wide northeast slope to the top pyramid. Beautiful views of the entire Glarus Alps and the neighboring Uri Alps. Descent copies the ascent track. A popular alternative is to continue crossing the Planura hut after descending the steep slope turn right to Claridenpass.
