The Silvretta Ski Safari is a mesmerizing journey through the snow from Montafon to the Paznauntal valley in neighbouring Tirol, which you can undertake individually or accompanied by a ski guide. The tour starts in the early morning in Partenen. After a ride up on Vermuntbahn, you take the tunnel bus to Bielerhöhe heights and the Silvretta reservoir. Then descend to Galtür, followed by a transfer on a snow cat up to Zeinisjoch. The culminating highlight is the descent down to Partenen. The guided ski safari can be booked along with some theory about avalanches.
