Tschiertschen Ski Resort Switzerland
Tschiertschen ski resort is a beautiful ‘small’ Swiss skiing area close to the canton Grisons capital, Chur. Whilst it has a respectable 1,050m skiable vertical plus a range of fun terrain in its own right, Tschiertschen is better known as a destination for ‘ski safaris’ from nearby Arosa & Lenzerheide, plus freeride descents into Parpen & Praden. Sounds like a Powderhound's nirvana - hence we have it on our secret stash list - even though hit is no secret to the locals!
