Madrisa circuit

The legendary tour to Switzerland and back

The circuit around the Madrisa, the 2,826 metre high group of peaks in the Rätikon, is one of the highlights of the Montafon ski paradise.

The ski tour leads along smugglers’ trails into Switzerland and back after outstanding descents and a ride on the Rhaetian railway. Anybody who has done it, will be raving about it for a long time to come. This is no easy tour, however, which also gives it its special allure. In order to do it safely, we recommend being accompanied by a local, state-certified mountain and ski guide. And being well prepared.
