Warth - Fürmesle
Toprecommended route Difficulty moderate
4 km
1:00 h
0 m
656 m
A long descent variant, although not particularly steep, which in the past you could ski from Lech to Warth. Due to the merger of the two ski areas, this variant has become somewhat more popular, as you can get back to the starting point very quickly.

An easy variant that can also be skied well under more challenging conditions. The terrain is not very demanding. With skillful track choice, you can still find good powder even in stronger sunshine.

Very nice variant with a long traverse at the start. In the middle there is a steep narrow section that can be somewhat uncomfortable with long skis. After that, it goes into moderate terrain down to ski slope no. 10 and further to Zürs.

A very rewarding variant with a short ascent, possible either with skins or on foot. Unfortunately, the Flexenmulde bus stop no longer exists, so you have to walk about 10 minutes on the road at the end of the tour to reach the "Muggengrat Taeli -10" ski piste.

Freerideabfahrt Klimm - vom Zuger Hochlicht nach Schröcken by Markus
February 16, 2025 · Community
Wir sind die Tour schon mehrmals gefahren - immer wieder ein Genuss. Aber - im mittleren Teil sollte man wissen wo abgebogen wird und im Rinnenbereich kann’s auch mal gefährlich werden. Sachkunde setz ich hier voraus!
