Dream tours in the pearl on the Julier Pass

Fantastic ski touring days on the Julier Pass with a qualified mountain guide! In spring, you will find ideal conditions for ski tours on both sides of the weather divide on the Julier Pass. Just a few kilometers from the Engadin, countless ski touring peaks await you. Roccabella, Piz Turba or Piz Grevasalvas don't sound very spectacular, but a ski touring mountain doesn't have to be. Rather, it needs slopes with the "right" gradient and exposure, enough snow and perhaps a generous view for good measure. You won't find all this anywhere else like in and around Bivio. For over 30 years, we at VIVALPIN have been cultivating this ski touring super tip without remorse and without fear of imitators. Because there is truly enough space in the Julier mountains...

"Ski touring at its best! We learned to appreciate and love the ski mountains around the Julier Pass back in 1986. The slopes are made for skiing, the summits are unspectacular, but often with good and usually plenty of snow. The Motta ski hut at an altitude of 2,000 m is our high alpine, pristine retreat and the perfect starting point for many tour summits."
