After going up the Maulerhubel lift a great option is to to return the way you came by following the line of the chairlift back down to the lift. The initial section is found by going right off the Maulerhubel piste so that you go under the Maulerhubel chairlift....

Follow the Fis (15b) piste past the reservoir and then take a right off the piste going along the top of a ridge line. From here you can either drop in down towards the Fis run off cornices that can be up to 10 feet high before a short few turns and back onto the Fis run....

After coming off the Murren-Birg cable car or off the Riggli chair head down to the left along blue piste Number 11 to the head of the valley. After the netted area you can turn off the piste to access about 250 metres of consistent steep turns that offers some of the best powder in the area after heavy snowfall....

At the end of the Schiltgrat ridge, the line of the old T bar presents a very challenging option due to its narrow width, almost requiring jump turns. When there has been heavy snow this widens and you can pick lines through the bushes....

Ski down the Engetal piste and instead of turning left to go to the Riggli chairlift or down towards the Muttleren chairlift, go straight on at the sign on the avalanche danger rope and proceed along a flattish bit through some large rocks....

Following the hairpins of the brutal Kanonenrohr black piste, this run is an opportunity for some great consistent steep off piste turns. Leaving the piste anywhere along the track after the last hairpin offers a steep and often untracked freeride option that is best when there is a lot of snow....

Instead of turning hard right onto the Winteregg blue piste or going straight onto the red piste, turn left and head off piste down the line of the Winteregg chairlift pylons....

We are using the Finsteraarhorn Hut as a base for 3 nights, allowing daypacks for the following 2 days. Today is the approach day with heavier sacks but is not unduly arduous....

After getting off the Schiltgrat chairlift take your skis off and be prepared for a short (5-10 minute) hike. Climb further up the Schiltgrat ridge behind the top station (A sign saying danger of avalanches shows you where to go)....

After going down the Bietenhorn piste for approximately 300 metres head to the right side of the piste and go round where avalanche danger rope is placed and begin traversing along the steep slope....

Similar to the 'Line of the Chairlift' freeride run, this run requires a longer traverse to access a steep and exciting pitch down the line of the Winteregg chairlift. Upon exiting the Winteregg chairlift, go around the corner following the blue run and turn to the left off the piste almost immediately....

The "Grey Slope" doesn't look very difficult, but you don't want to get it wrong either. After getting off to the right on the top of the Oberjoch lift, you will see a wide slope....

Whilst it is possible to come into the Oberland by other means this is by far the simplest, quickest and least effort. The railway itself is a historic journey itself through the very heart of the Eiger....

It means over the naturally occurring terraces, which locals call "Trottoirs", through the steep rocky E flank of Oberjoch. This route requires save snow conditions and a great deal of experience and very good skills....

This is probably the most difficult piece of off piste in the area, and is certainly not for the faint hearted! It is roped off by avalanche warning signs and you should be really prepared for a gnarly descent....

On arrival at the Schilthorn don't head out of the normal skier exit. Instead head up onto the viewing terrace and be sure to have a look at the view! Then head down the small steps that are cordoned off with a warning to take care....

This run is visible from the Schiltgrat chair lift, down to your right just before the top station. After getting off the Schiltgrat chair or Gimmeln T-Bar go to the left of the piste where the "danger of avalanche" rope shows you where to go....
