Tour du Ciel - day 3 3649 m
Cabane du Mountet Walliser Alpen / Alpes valaisannes Switzerland
- Length of ascent10,5 km
- ascent2420 m

A very long and demanding, royal stage of this Haute Route. In my opinion, the most impressive stage of all multi-day Alpine crossings. Due to the elevation gain and time required, it’s worth considering splitting the stage into two days with an overnight stay in Zinal. The long, exposed ridge to the summit requires rope protection depending on conditions. The descent is fantastically long, but caution is needed – there are large crevasses. This ski tour is only recommended in stable weather; in poor conditions, it’s advisable to bypass the Blanc de Moming via the Glacier de Zinal and ascend directly to the Cabane de Tracuit.

Pigne d´Arolla is a very popular and easily accessible viewpoint. The ski tour to the summit leads from the three mountain huts - Cabane Dix, Cabane Vignettes and Cabane Chanrion. The route from Dix goes around the glacial seracs to the saddle Col de la Serpentine and the summit can be reached on skis. A worthwhile summit on the Haute Routes to Zermatt.

A relatively easy ascent, though steep in places, from Lake Turtmannsee, which is reached by descending from the Turtmannhütte. From the summit ridge, there's a long descent to the Hotel Weisshorn, followed by forest trails leading down to the village of St. Luc - Chandolin in the Val d'Anniviers.

Piz Buin ze švýcarské strany je zajímavější túra než ze strany rakouské. výstup v závěrečné části je stejný. Pod stěnu vede trasa přes sedla Plan Mezdi a Fuorcla dal Cunfin. Za stabilní sněhové pokrývky je alternativou sjezd žlabem Buinlücke.

Flüela Wisshorn is the most interesting ski tour around Davos. It is offered to do an interesting round with two great downhills. The north slope to the Jöriseen lakes promises powder, while the south slopes to the Flüelatal valley promise firn. The ascent is not very demanding, at the end to the summit without skis with the help of crampons, then down to Jöriseen and noc once in the nameless saddle. Finally departure to the Flüelatal. Attention, in 2019 there was a landslide of stones in the area of the ascent route, which therefore changes the ascent route.

Chli Bielenhorn je skalnatá špička v říši monumentálních žulových stěn divokých hor. Začátek kolem silnice na Furkapass pokračuje po pláni pod chatou Albert-Heim-Hütte. Pak přichází v sousedství pohled na ledovce monumentálního Dammastocku. V kulisách skal vede logická linie ke skidepu kousek pod vrcholem. V případě stabilního sněhu je fajn alternativou sjezdová linie jižně od výstupové stopy a dále členitým terénem k hotelu Tiefenbach a v okolí silnice nebo po ní zpět do Realpu.
