Back to Diemtigtal

Three days of ski touring in one of our favourite regions: Diemtigtal in canton Bern.
Our base was the charming hostel Bergli, just above Diemtigen village.

Two of the tours - Abendberg and Hoejegg - started right from the door step.

Lots of sunshine, and great views. The snow was old; in places difficult to ski, but in others it was just perfect.

On Saturday we planned to get to Puntel from Rossberg but took the wrong way and wasted a lot of time trying to find a way through the trees. Finally we gave up, and saved the day by spending a couple of hours enjoying the sunshine on the Rossberg groomed slopes.
