In Davos Klosters there are six ski areas for freeriding. Freeriders can comfortably reach different variants from high alpine to secured routes with the mountain railways. 

ITake a deep breath and go. The momentum swings all by itself, powder snow swirls up on both sides. It’s like surfing. No, even better: it’s like floating. The slight fear of the ride? Forgotten. A glance back at the freshly ridden line in the deep snow. Feelings of happiness. This is what a freeride adventure in Davos Klosters feels like. All you need for freeriding is a special backpack, avalanche beeper and long, wide boards on your feet. And best of all, a guide to show you our freeride area.

Comfortably with the funicular to the starting point
Apart from that, everything is there: different slope inclinations to find the best line for you. In addition, there are six ski areas, so that you can still find untracked slopes a few days after the last snowfall. And the best thing is that you can comfortably reach different variants from high alpine to secured routes here with the mountain railway. Like in hardly any other ski area, the piste services make sure that you really feel safe when freeriding on the yellow-marked slopes.

Funi Line – secured but free deep snow skiing
The Funi Line lives up to its name, derived from funicular. This day tour connects all the secured but unprepared slopes in Davos Klosters. In short: no ascent. Just draw new lines and enjoy the fresh powder snow. Good to know: On all secured slopes, the regional rescue service decides whether the slope is open or not.
