Freeride Schilthorn
Schilthorn is the freeride mecca of the Jungfrau region and our local mountain guides know the terrain like the back of their hand! Descents into enchanting valleys such as the Saustal, or the couloir on the 'thumb' are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to our guides' repertoire of insider-knowledge. Treat yourself to the perfect powder day and have one of our experienced freeride guides show you the best this region has to offer.
