Parsenn - Davos Klosters — Attraction in Davos

The best ski resort! Skiing here since 2012 and not bored! Not good for very begginers, but if you are ok on red slopes you should come here to practice. Only few Tbars left, which you can avoid, if you come from Klosters side, ski down to the double chair lift, or go forward to the carpet lift, and then go on higher.. i like that first slopes are done so that you can warm up well, and higher you ski,you can find steeper places. There are many slopes that are wide and straight, where you can practice with different level skiers. There is fun slope that goes parallel blue slope nr15. Some restaurants (one i know for sure) that do not accept credit cards, make sure to have some cash, just in case. I like Parsenn that its in the valley and you can ski several directions of the mountain, towards Davos,Klosters or Saas,Küblis.. on Davos side, there are two fun places: Race slope, where you can get the video of your skiing after you register your ski card, and the slope where you go for max.speed(there's speedometer) Even if you dont want to ski black route, you can take the lift all the way up to see an incredible view of the area, eat in that restaurant and go back with the lift.. totally reccomended. One more thing.. there is a "secret" slope(Seetäli...sssshhhh dont tell to anyone,its our secret;) ), from which you can spot the family of mountain goats(famous Steinbock) in order to earn that experience, you must take a Tbar up ;) dont forget the binoculars if you want to see them even better, but even without you can see them usually. I wish you to have a great ride...

Love this place! From Zürich its super easily accessible - its a little less than 2 hours from Zürich HB to Klosters Platz. As soon as you exit the train, across the street is a rental place where you can rent your gear. Literally next to the rental place is the gondola entrance. If you didnt buy your ticket online, you can buy it at the gondola entrance (can only pay with card - no cash is accepted). Mid morning its a bit of chaos there as its just one door for access to the ticket box and gondola entrance. I would recommend arriving no later than 8.30-9.00 if you dont want to queue. Even with a queue, you can get to the ski runs in 30 min - 1 hour, it isnt that bad of a wait. Note, that there is a second gondola to take after the first.

The runs are really great - not too easy but not too difficult either. There is one run that takes you through the forest and all the way down to next to the 1st gondola. This is where the apres ski is. For the apres ski, definitely arrive a bit earlier than run closure if you want to get a seat inside (there is live music). If you cannot grab a place inside, they sell drinks out of a little car outside and there are a few places to stand/sit as well. After apres ski, its a quick walk across a bridge to the train station and...

This is the perfect ski resort with over 300km ski courses and 55 lifts! In this ski resort I started 20 years ago with skiing. And I visited this ski resort over 15 times. You have modern lifts and the area is very big with a lots of different kind of ski courses for different skill levels.

My favorite course is no. 22 that goes complete down to the valley. If you start from the highst point (Weissfluhjoch 2665m) you can skiing down to the valley over 35min without useing any lift.

Also In case of an emergency you have the best recue team and good doctors from germany there!

But make sure before you go there that complete a abroad insurance because the prices for rescue are very expensive:

800€ to carry on a stretcher down to the ambulance 1200€ to carry you with an piste basher 3000€ to bring you down with an helicopter

But you get a free choclate with the bill to your home...
