Have you ever thought about taking part in the Engadin Ski Marathon? Or are you already an experienced cross-country skier and would like to train with other cross-country skiers, swap tips and experiences, and learn something new? Then you’ve come to the right place!
Experienced cross-country skiers and anyone who’d like to become one will meet on Friday evenings between December 2026 and February 2027 for five group training sessions on the cross-country trail at Engstligenalp, where snow is guaranteed. The training sessions are led by instructors and take place under the starry sky, using headlamps. The aim is to prepare for and take part in the 2027 Engadin Ski Marathon together. With our flexible packages, you can also book your accommodation in the Engadin at the same time. But even if you’re not taking part in the marathon, you’re very welcome to join our training sessions!
