Splitboarding hut weekend
The splitboarding hut weekend takes place around the Heidelberger Hütte. We will aim to cover as much elevation gain as possible in search for good snow and reach some new peaks. This weekend would be the perfect warm-up for the Lofoten trip.
On the first day, we’ll meet in Ischgl, take the lift up, and ride some lines at the resort. After lunch, we’ll head deeper into the valley and splitboard up to the hut, arriving by late afternoon. After dinner, we’ll plan the tour for the next day.
Depending on the group’s fitness and skills, we’ll cover around 500 to 1000 vertical meters each day. This weekend suits snowboarders of all levels, from beginners to experienced splitboarders.
If the weather isn’t ideal for touring, we’ll stay around the hut to practice avalanche safety, snow stability, and splitboarding techniques.
The hut
The Heidelberger Hütte is a wonderful place, with a warm and welcoming host who provides us with dinner and breakfast. From here, you can go on several tours directly along the Swiss/Austrian border. The rooms are simple and can accommodate 2 to 10 people comfortably. The hut is located in a romote valley at 2264m, offering the possibility to tour a few 3000m peaks. Within a 30-minute ride downhill, you’ll reach the Ischgl ski resort.

Is my snowboarding good enough for this trip?
Each day we splitboard between 500 and 1000 vertical meters, which takes around 3 to 6 hours at a steady pace. This allows enough time to enjoy the surroundings, take breaks, and fully experience the backcountry without rushing. The ascent is rewarded with a descent through varied terrain, where you should be confident riding powder snow on slopes of up to 35 degrees. Conditions can range from deep powder to more challenging snow, so some riding skills and some off-piste experience are recommended.
