Nostalgia Run on Parsenn

SKIING IN SWITZERLAND HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER 150 YEARS. ONE OF THE FIRST DOWNHILL ROUTES DISCOVERED FOR SKIING LEADS ON PARSENN FROM THE WEISSFLUH SUMMIT DOWN TO KÜBLIS (12KM).

Following in the footsteps of our ancestors, the 12-kilometre route offers pure downhill fun. The information boards are spread over the entire distance of 12 km and inform about various topics from the beginning of skiing in Davos or on the Parsenn. Depending on the snow conditions the route is passable up to Küblis or up to Schifer.

FAQ's

The most important questions

The Nostalgia Run is located on Parsenn and can therefore be used with a day ticket for the Parsenn area.

On the one hand, the guest must be able to read and above all ski or snowboard. You must also bring the appropriate snow sports equipment with you. Then nothing stands in the way of the downhill fun of the Nostalgia Run from the Weissfluh summit start to the end in Küblis.

As soon as the ski lift and the summit lift are open at the beginning of the season, the Nostalgia Run can be used. Depending on the snow conditions, the route is open until about mid-March to Küblis.

If all the questions have been answered in full, the competition can be redeemed at the Parsenn Davos and Parsenn Klosters ticket offices. If all the questions are correct, the participant will receive a small nostalgic present.

This is of course a surprise and will not be revealed.
