10.30 am

while the pistes are slowly filling up, enjoy a down-to-earth breakfast on Hörnli

11 am

take the Urdenbahn aerial tramway and do two or three long runs on Heimberg while everyone else is having lunch. Then go over to the Stäzer side and enjoy a drink in Chilli hut. After this go on the Stäzerhorn runs a couple of times and then return to Heimberg.

2 pm

when the pistes get busy again, have a snack or lunch at Motta hut, then go back towards Arosa.

Schümlipflümli (plum brandy coffee) at Carmennahütte and perhaps another one in the village after the descent, for example at Los or Overtime.

freshen up

8.30 pm

Evening meal in one of the spectacular restaurants in Arosa

11 pm

wander through Arosa's night-life and make a detour to Wandelbar before returning home.

From the third day onwards it's probably best to give yourself a break from skiing and lie on a deck chair with the sun in your face dreaming of skiing instead...

You can also find the complete safari route here as an interactive map.
