Meet your guide for this snowmobile safari in Madesimo. An unforgettable way of exploring the alpine badlands between Italy and Switzerland, this winter adventure explores up to 70km of routes across the Splügen Pass. Suitable for groups of friends and families alike, start with a short safety briefing and demo before you set off through the winter woodlands of the ski resort.
