Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.
Wir hatten das zusätzliche Glück wunderschöne Fotos von Fabio zu erhalten, der als Fotograph unsere Gruppe begleitete. Sensationell.
100% Weiterempfehlung.
Es war alles super organisiert, der Bergführer war genial und die Truppe einfach Klasse.
Wir sehen uns definitiv wieder.
Tolle Alternative als Bergsport im Winter
