General info: 

The ski area Lötschental expands from the Hockenhorngrat up to an altitude of 3111 m and has a spacious free ride area available next to several slopes suitable for all levels of difficulty. Amongst them is a rather demanding piste leading from the Hockenhorn to the Lauchneralp. Especially well are the offers for ski mountaineering in the ski area Lötschental. A popular route leads over the Gitzifurgga down to Leukerbad and over the Torrenthorn back into the Lötschental where the sunny plateau of the Lauchneralp greets the mountaineers.
