Explore the Splügen Pass on this overnight snowmobile safari to Madesimo
Explore the crown of the Alps on this snowmobile tour and overnight experience.
Retreat to the sleepy town of Soglio, a stone’s throw from the Italian border for this snowmobile overnighter deep in the Swiss Alps. Arrive under the veil of darkness to the small alpine town, overlooked by some of the mountains most arresting peaks and dine by candlelight. Come morning, your adventure becomes apparent – saddling up in the shadow of Pizz Gallagiun, explore the gateway to paradise across the Oberhalbstein Range via Cava to Lago Nero and up to Splügen pass.
