Tours by Oscar
Piz Bernina Biancograt 4048m & Piz Palü 3899m
Join me for a spectacular high alpine adventure on the iconic Biancograt, one of the most beautiful ridges in the Alps. This classic tour begins with an ascent to the Tschierva Hut, followed by an early start to climb the elegant snow arête of the Biancograt to the summit of Piz Bernina (4,049 m), the easternmost 4,000-meter peak in the Alps. After a night at the Marco e Rosa Hut, we traverse the majestic Piz Palü, crossing its three summits while enjoying breathtaking views over the Bernina range and beyond. Guests can expect a demanding but rewarding tour with exposed ridgelines, mixed climbing, and unforgettable panoramas. This is a tour for fit and experienced alpinists looking to challenge themselves on one of the most aesthetic routes in the Alps.
Central Switzerland Alpine Gems - Krönten 3108 m and Gross Spannort 3198 m
This three-day alpine adventure takes you through some of the most scenic and rewarding terrain in Central Switzerland. The tour begins with a beautiful approach to the Leutschachhütte, with the option for a refreshing swim in a pristine mountain lake before settling in for a relaxed evening and stunning views. On day two, we set out early to climb the elegant Ostgrat on Krönten—a ridge offering rewarding climbing of moderate difficulty (max grade III/IV) on solid Urner granite, and a true taste of alpine adventure. After reaching the summit, we descend to the Kröntenhütte for a well-earned rest. Day three takes us over a glacier and up to a final summit with shorter, easier climbing—but views that are no less breathtaking. This peak is a true classic and a dream summit for many who visit the Engelberg region. Throughout the journey, you’ll experience a memorable blend of hiking, scrambling, and alpine climbing in spectacular surroundings, guided by a certified IFMGA mountain guide. Alternatives are possible, such as skipping one of the peaks or taking the easier normal route on Krönten, to suit different conditions and ability levels.
Freeride day in Engelberg with Oscar
Engelberg probably has the best and most easily accessible off-piste skiing in the world. It is famous for its varied terrain and great snow. Here, we can take the lifts up to 3,020 meters, and there are a lot of alternative runs and terrains available. On this tour you join a local IFMGA mountain guide aspirant for an unforgettable day of freeride guiding. After a brief snow safety overview, we’ll dive into exploring Engelberg’s world-renowned off-piste runs. Around midday, we’ll take a break to enjoy lunch, hopefully surrounded by stunning alpine views, before heading back out to make the most of our freeride day in the snow.
