Evening and Full-Moon Ski Tours on Brambrüesch

The pistes on Brambrüesch are generally closed from 4:30 pm. During subsequent piste grooming, snow groomers are in operation, some of them using winches. Particularly in the Dreibündenstein–Hühnerköpfe area, a steel cable up to 1 km long may be stretched across the terrain. Depending on the terrain, it can be very difficult to see, especially in the dark.

Full-Moon Ski Tours

An exception applies around the full moon: 3 days before the full moon, on the night of the full moon and 3 days afterwards, the designated route is open to ski tourers until 10:00 pm. For both the ascent and descent, only the route marked on the map may be used; from Malixer Alp, this follows the black piste. Outside these time periods, all pistes remain closed from 4:30 pm.

5 Rules for Ski Tourers

In addition to the generally applicable rules of the SAC, BfU and SBS, the following rules apply in the Chur Bergbahnen area:

  1. Observe all warning signs and notices in the area.
  2. Ascend only along the edge of the piste and in single file. Do not cross the piste.
  3. Always comply with piste closures. Snow groomers, and in particular winch cables, can create life-threatening hazards.
  4. Do not ski on freshly groomed pistes. Tracks that freeze overnight can negatively affect piste preparation.
  5. Make sure you are clearly visible, especially at night – for example by using a headlamp and wearing reflective clothing.
