Selun is a long, gently ascending ridge, with no difficulties for ski tourists or snowshoe hikers. Since it is exposed, it is often wind-swept. Before reaching ideal terrain for skiing, tourists must negotiate the long steep ascent (400 metres vertical height) on a road through a thick, steep forest.
Route description

Continue southward ascending through the pastures of Hofstatt to reach the edge of the forest (P. 1221). Now follow the road on a sometimes very steep slope through the Selun forest to reach the summit station of the Selun aerial cableway (1578 m). Now ascend south-eastward the bowl of Vorderselun to reach the north ridge of Selun, which you follow to the summit.
