Some snow fields are still lying in the area between Weissfluhjoch and Chörbschhorn - due to the cool spring. The people behind the Herbert.bike project therefore decided to make yesterday, June 28, "World Shovel Day" and called for snow clearing. In addition to local mountain bikers, the "Bike Academy Davos", "Bikeguiding Klosters", the bike store "Ivans Velo Sport" and the mountain bike hotel Ameron also pitched in. In the service of the guests, they have cleared the single trail underneath in snow fields or created a solid and safe passage when there was too much snow. Nothing stands in the way of the start of the Bahnentour Davos Klosters season.

The "World Shovel Day" was initiated by Herbert.bike in Davos and is based on volunteer work. The snow is cleared exclusively under one's own steam without any mechanical aids. The "World Shovel Day" will also take place next year, possibly in other high-altitude Grisons bike regions such as Engadin St. Moritz or Lenzerheide. It is the intention of Herbert.bike to enable guests to get through more smoothly and safely on their mountain bikes (or in hiking boots), while at the same time protecting nature by preventing the snow fields from being bypassed with a "free choice of route" across the alpine meadows.
