The Oberaarjochhütte is a modernized mountain hut with a unique location above the Oberaarjoch Pass. It is built on a rock ledge and is therefore accessible only by ladder. Its advantage lies in its seclusion from the main flow of ski tourers. On the crossing from the Konkordia or Finsteraarhornhütte, you can enjoy the romance of the high mountains without any people around. From the hut, you can see the imposing face of Finsteraarhorn. The hut serves as the starting point for Vordere Galmihorn, and with the subsequent descent into the Goms Valley, you elegantly complete the Haute Route of the Bernese Alps.

Vorderes Galmihorn je skvělý skialpový vrchol na závěr akce v centru Bernských Alp. Po výstupu na vrchol z chaty Oberaletschhütte přináší skvělou možnost sjezdu do údolí Goms, což je logisticky výhodné v případě startu lanovkou z Fiesch. Výstup vede po mírném ledovci Galmigletscher a dále po přehledném svahu posetém trhlinami. Při sjezdu dávejte pozor na trhlinu pod sedlem Bächlilicke. Na jaře vás v závěru túry nemine pochod do údolí s lyžemi na batohu. Nabízí se sjezd do Reckingenu nebo Münsteru.

Hubelhorn (day 4, h.r. Swiss Glacier) 3244 m
Bächlitalhütte Berner Alpen / Alpes bernoises Switzerland
- Length of ascent11,5 km
- ascent1730 m
- duration9-11 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
The Hubelhorn skitour is an ideal extension of the crossing between the Bächlitalhütte and Gaulihütte. After a short ride from the saddle, Obri Bächlilicke climbs through the steep east slope into the rocky saddle and then slightly up the crossing to Hubelhorn. Beware of some hot spots at the Gauligletscher Glacier. From Gauli hut is a nice tour through the northern slope, but in the opposite direction.

- Length of ascent3,5 km
- ascent970 m
- duration6-8 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
Grosses Grünhorn je jediná 4000vka v oblasti chaty Konkordiahütte. Výstup z chaty Mönchsjochhütte vede z po ledovci Ewigschneefeld a následně po severozápadních svazích na hřeben Grünhornu. Pozor na ledovcové trhliny. Nedaleko od sedla je skidepot od kterého se jde na vrchol v mačkách. Sjezd pokračuje logicky na Konkordiaplatz a túra končí na chatě Konkordia. Tak je to ideální. Alternativou je výstup sjezd přes vrchol Grünegghorn, na který se musí vylézt s lyžemi na batohu.

Relatively easy glacier ski tour to the most popular summit of the Hollandia hut. The glacier is not too cracked and the ascent path is gradually gaining altitude. At the end, ridge is waiting between the secondary and main summits. With good visibility it is a ski tour without complications.

Tour du Ciel - day 4 4153 m
Cabane Tracuit Walliser Alpen / Alpes valaisannes Switzerland
- Length of ascent6 km

- duration5,5-7,5 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
The stage begins at the Cabane Tracuit with an ascent of the 4,000-meter peak Bishorn, which is considered relatively easy. After skiing back down to the Tracuit hut, the route continues with a descent over the Turtmanngletscher glacier. A subsequent climb over the Brunegggletscher glacier leads into a rocky corridor, which marks the beginning of the descent to the Turtmannhütte.

- Length of ascent6,5 km

- duration6,5-8,5 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
The Piz Palü with its characteristic three pillars is probably the most popular "not 4000" in the Alps. The exit from the Berghaus Diavolezza is ideal, it is also possible from the Bovalhütte. The key point for the ascent and descent is the passage of the Labyrinth between the Seraks. Continue over a relatively steep glacier to the ski depot. Then ascent with ice axe and crampons along the exposed summit ridge. The usual goal of ski mountaineers is the eastern summit - 3882 m.

La Luette je vděčná túra z chaty Cabane Dix. Po mírném svahu na ledovec Glacier de la Luette a v závěru po hřebenu na vrchol. Pouhých 500 výškových metrů od chaty může být lákadlem pro odpolední túru poté, když dorazíte brzo na chatu Dix.
