Description

The tour starts on the valley road at Under Camana. The post bus stop is located here. Alternatively, you can drive to Ober Camana and take a shorter tour.

The tour leads past brown-burnt barns, some of which are still or once again covered with shingles, in the direction of Ober Camana. Here you will come across a largely intact Walser scattered settlement. The wide slopes that follow invite you to freely interpret the exact route. Depending on the avalanche conditions, this is also possible without any problems. The ideal snowshoe slopes allow your gaze to wander freely. The surrounding mountain world in this part of the Safiental offers more than enough opportunities for this.

We have chosen point 2397 for this tour. But there are many more available. On the one hand, the Camaner ridge offers a very impressive view down the north side and over a large part of the Surselva. On the other hand, there is a far-reaching view of the rocky neighboring mountains in the Safiental.

The descent is via a loop next to the exit track. From Ober Camana, the route follows the track created in the morning back to the valley road.

Geheimtipp

If you are traveling by car, you can enjoy something to eat on the sun terrace of the Hotel Camana after the tour. The restaurant is located in the old schoolhouse in Camanaboda.

Sicherheitshinweis

Ski and snowshoe tours in unsecured terrain require a good knowledge of avalanche risk assessment and tour planning. Furthermore, complete safety equipment must always be carried - regardless of the current avalanche risk.

We recommend using the WhiteRisk app and website to prepare and plan your tour.

For carefree enjoyment, we recommend our mountain guides and snowshoe hiking guides in the Surselva.
