Cabane Chanrion offers a variety of ski tours and is also an important stop on the famous Haute Route Chamonix - Zermatt. You can reach it from Valsorey via the Plateau Couloir. The continuation to the Cabane Vignettes either leads over the Otemna glacier or over a more interesting route through the Les Portons. The most difficult peak in the region is La Ruinette. The FXB Panossiere can be reached via Tournelon Blanc. The Chalet Dix and the Arolla Valley can be reached via Cabane Dix with a fork to Mont Blanc Cheilon. The access from the Mauvoisin Dam is at risk from avalanches and is not recommended. Contact the hut for detailed information.

The Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt between the Chanrion and Vignetts huts offers two options. The clear number one is the line between the ridges above the Col Portons saddle. The only complication may be a few climb steps in the saddle, but it's all about a fantastic ski tour. A great highlight of this skitour is a bonus in the form of the Pigne Arolla summit. Then only the descent to Cabane Vignettes remains.

Velkolepá a náročná túra na vrchol v monumentální horské krajině mezi ledovci. Z chaty Chanrion po trase do sedla Portons. Včas odboč doleva na ledovec Brenay. Klíčem k úspěchu je trefit kanál, kterým se vystoupá na svah Ruinette a poměrně snadno se pokračuje do sedla pod vrcholovou pyramidu. Tady je skidepot a dále v mačkách a s cepínem. Sjezd po trase výstupu.

Breithorn - Zermatt 4164 m
Monte Rosa Hütte Walliser Alpen / Alpes valaisannes Switzerland
- Length of ascent3 km
- ascent440 m
- duration3-4 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
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.

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.

Tödi 3614 m
Fridolinshütte Glarus Alps Switzerland
- Length of ascent6 km
- ascent1495 m
- duration7-10 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦♦
In the Middle Ages, Tödi was considered the highest mountain in the world. Today it is an attractive destination for ski mountaineers, but it is not easy to hit good weather. The ascent is made difficult by a glacier littered with fractures and cracks. Starts from the Fridolins hut over the moraine and descends briefly to the Bifertenfirn glacier. The hardest part is to overcome the first two drops, then the climb up is relatively easy. Depending on the conditions on skis or with crampons to the summit. Provides information about the current conditions on the glacier in the Fridolinshütte.

A very popular tour of glacial terrain. Start at Hotel Steingletscher (Sustenpass road, parking) or Tierbergli hütte. From the parking a large elevation of 1700 m. Technically not very demanding tour, but conditionally yes. Route parameters are listed at the start of the Hotel Steingletscher and from the peak of Sustenhorn leads downhill to Tierbergli.

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.
