Gaulihütte is a relatively "young" mountain hut, built in 1978 in the east of the Bernese Alps an excellent location for skiing tours. Less ideal with access to the hut. The bases of skittles on Hubelhorn, Ankenbäli, Wetterhorn, Rosenhorn, Ewigschneehorn, Ränfenhorn, Hangendgletscherhorn. The last chalet on the Swiss Glacier Haute Route - an impressive crossing over the summit of Rosenhorn or Wetterhorn, with an elevation of nearly 2500 m to the Rosenlau Gorge, where writer Sir Doyle ended Sherlock Holmes life. The entrance to the hut from Innertkirchen via Urbachtal is not recommended, a safer option is from the Räterichsboden dam. An interesting fact is the fall of the American aircraft in 1947 just a few kilometers from the hut.

At first, an inconspicuous brick, from which a distinctive ridge and a perfect viewing tower of the Bernese Alps 4000, dominated by the Finsteraarhorn. From Gaulihütte, at first, a sharp, rugged hillside to the american Dakota air accident memorial. Then down the glacier and the lengthy ascent below the Rosenhorn Ridge. The difficulty of the ridge depends on the snow conditions. The Rosenlaui Valley is one of the longest in the Alps. Initially, following a mild glacier, from a 3000 m high, there is a steep slope, later very ragged. Beware of orientation and avalanche danger. Around the Rosenlaui Gorge at the parking lot and the bus stop.

- duration2,5-4 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦◊◊

Túra na impozantní Mnich (Mönch) je v podstatě dlouhou hřebenovkou v mačkách a s cepínem. S rostoucí výškou roste obtížnost. S úbytkem ledovcového příkrovu roste expozice. Pokud nejste horský vůdce, nepoužívejte techniku krátkého lana. V závěrečném úseku je každá chyba nevratná. Výstup přináší fantastický zážitek se spoustou výhledů na nádherný svět ledovců.

- Length of ascent7 km

Gross Grünhorn is the only 4000 meter in the Konkordiahütte area. The ascent leads from Konkordiaplatz along the edge of the Ewigschneefeld glacier and then along the northwestern slopes of the Grünhorn ridge. Beware of glacier cracks around the saddle between Grünegghorn and Gross Grünhorn. Not far from the saddle is a ski depot, from which you can go up with crampons and ice ax. The descent along the ascent route is safer than the descent variant through Grüneggfirn (glacier cracks).

Skialpová túra na Jungfrau z chaty Konkordia začíná velmi dlouhým nástupem po ledovci Jungfraufirn. Následuje prudký výstup na hřeben a dále do sedla Rottalsattel přes nepříjemnou thlinu. Skidepot a na mčkách a s cepínem po plochém hřebenu na vrchol. Alternativní sjezd přes sedlo Louwitor na ledovec Aletschfirn a po něm na chatu Konkordia. Možné je po dosažení vrcholu pokračovat na nádraží Jungfraujoch nebo nocovat na Mönchsjochhütte.

- Length of ascent3 km

Breithorn can be rated as the lightest 4000 in the Alps. In any case, thanks to the support of the Klein Matterhorn cable car, which transports ski mountaineers up to 3880 m. From the cable car station (beautiful viewpoint) to the glacier plain below the summit, which can be often reached on skis. In good conditions, it is worthwhile to continue to the Schwarztor saddle and drive descent back to Zermatt. The second variant of the freeride is the descent from the Unterer Theodulgletscher. This descent is simply great up to Seehöre 2400.

Piz Bernina is the only 4000m peak in the Eastern Alps. The greatest danger are the huge and numerous crevasses on the Morteratsch Glacier and the ridge to the summit. Piz Bernina sets off from Chamanna Boval or Rifugio Marco e Rosa on the plateau below the summit. Bernina is a demanding alpine challenge.

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.
