Experience the snowy winter scenery of Arosa by skiing along the varied cross-country trails. Be it challenging or easy, on tracks through forests, along lakes or on a plateau, everyone will find their favourite route. The tracks in Arosa are located at an altitude of 1'600 to 1'950 metres above sea level.
Cross-country group: Skating & Social
Sport, fresh mountain air and great company!
Up for a full-body workout in the middle of an alpine winter? Come out on the Arosa trails with us and discover the sporty side of the Gay Ski Week.
Skating is about as complete as winter sport gets. Legs, glutes, core, back, shoulders and arms are all working, and your endurance, balance and coordination along with them. Best of all, you are outside the whole time, in cold clear air with the Alps all around you.
It is not only about the sport, though. You will be out there with other Gay Ski Week guests, so expect some laughing, a few stops to catch your breath, and faces you will recognise at the party that evening.
The cross-country group is a Gay Ski Week service, offered exclusively to Event Pass holders.
- We meet Sunday to Friday at 10am at the Oberseeplatz/Post bus stop and take the bus out to the trails together. We are back by 1pm.
- Technique: skating, and you need to know it already. Our hosts are there to ski with you, not to teach you. If you want to learn or sharpen up, book a lesson with the snowsports school.
