Heliski Ebnefluh and Petersgrat (Code: 10076)
A touch of Canada in the Bernese Oberland. Treat yourself to a fantastic downhill run through swirling powder-snow, past glacial ice avalanches and crevasses to an SAC hut and on through forested terrain. Helisking in harmony with nature and the snow experience of a lifetime!
Helicopter flight
The helicopter takes you on a first flight from the take-off point to Ebnefluh. The flight over the Kleine Scheidegg/Männlichen ski area past the Eiger, Mönch & Jungfrau is only the first highlight of the day. The second flight takes you from Langgletscher over spectacular, high-Alpine areas and glaciers to Petersgrat.
Ski route
Bewitched by imposing 4000 metre mountains, you take the downhill run via the Ebnefluhfirn to the Lötschenlücke and on past the Hollandia Hut via the Lang Glacier to the glacier end. Then the helicopter takes you on a second flight up to Petersgrat. A run down stunning, but steep slopes through the Faflertal Valley to the Lötschental Valley in Canton Valais (Distance approx. 35km). Return trip via Goppenstein – Lötschberg – Spiez.
Variations:
Conditions permitting, a run down through impressive glacial towers and over the splendid slopes of the Tschingelfirn, past the Mutthorn Hut and down to the Oberhornsee Lake, then on down steep forested slopes to Stechelberg.
