The Cabane des Vignettes is located at the crossroads of two haute routes to Zermatt. One leads from Chamonix and the other from Verbier. All ski tours to the Vignettes hut follow the glaciers. The easiest approach is from Arolla. In addition to going from hut to hut, you can ski from Vignettes to the peaks of L'Eveque, Mont Brulé and Pigne Arolla. Reservations have to be made on time.
