glow Mountain Weekend 2025
Saturday, 30 August 2025 | 06:45 am
"On the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came down on Mount Ararat" (Genesis 8:4). In keeping with this verse, it gives me great pleasure to announce the seventh glow Mountain Weekend!
Together as glow Youth and glow Next we will take the train to Bergün on the Albula Pass and hike in 3-3.5 hours to the Ela hut, where we will also cook, stay and sleep. For the more ambitious among us, there is the option of travelling on to Preda and then hiking around Piz Ela to the same destination, which takes around 5.5 hours. So there is something for everyone, and the direct ascent also leaves enough time for breaks and to discover nature. On Sunday, we take the direct route back down to the valley to have lunch before setting off on the return journey.
