    A short ascent awaits us in the morning to reach a new, unspoilt descent variant and the other side of the valley. We enjoy a long north-facing descent through varied terrain. After a small counter-climb, the final descent to Fideris or Küblis begins. This is where our eventful 2-day ski crossing ends.
