Ruwlispass snowkite spot

Overview

This is a spot we tried in March 2025, access is by skins, count 1h to 1h15 depending on where the wind will be on the spot.
In theory, the spot should work with winds from Northwest to Northeast (To be confirmed). The starting point can be just before Ruwlispass or right after the small lake at the pass. The spot is in front of you and it looks very playful and magnificent.

Don't hesitate to let me know if you try it once!
