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.

Blanc de Moming - Dôme Circuit 3649 m
Cabane du Mountet Walliser Alpen / Alpes valaisannes Switzerland
- Length of ascent10 km
- ascent2035 m
- duration9-11 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦♦
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦♦
Blanc de Moming - Dôme is a beautiful but also very demanding complex ski tour. First ascent from Cabane Mountet to La Forcle saddle and then not very easy descent and then ascent along the Glacier du Besso. At the end of the glacier there is an uncomfortable border between snow and rock. Climb a rocky slope. First along a flat ridge, which is increasingly exposed. It is recommended to belay in windy weather. At the beginning of the spectacular descent along the Glacier de Moming, pay attention to the gigantic cracks. The departure line (keep left) turns from the northern to the western slope. After reaching the valley there is an easy ascent along the Glacier de Zinal back to Cabane Mountet.

Bishorn seems to be a relatively light 4000, but looks are deceptive. If you include the approach to Cabane Tracuit from Zinal in the ascent, it is quite a long ski tour. From the hut the ascent line leads slightly up the glacier Turtmanngletscher. Directly below the peak on the plateau you have to swap skis for crampons and comfortably climb to the panoramic summit - one of the best in all of Valais. Driving down the northern slope is usually a fantastic enjoyment, the risk of glacier cracks is minimal.

Strahlhorn (Britannia Hütte, Walliser Alpen) is a classic glacier ski tour from Britannia Hütte. From the Adlerpass saddle, you usually go skiing to the top. To get off Saas Fee, take the Metro to the "window" at 3460 m to the Hohlaub Gletscher and start the ascent after a short ride.

Pizzo Lucendro 2963 m
Rotondohütte Urner Alps Switzerland
- Length of ascent5,5 km
- ascent1090 m
- duration4-6 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦◊◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
Pizzo Lucendro je výrazný vrchol nad Gotthardpassem a také prvotřídní rozhledna. Na túru lze vyrazit z údolního Realpu, snazší je start z chaty Rotondohütte. Po sjezdu nad úroveň salaší nastává dlouhý výstup členitým terénem, který nabírá na strmosti. Těsně pod skalním sedlem je v úzkém koridoru zvládání otočky nutností. Za sedlem následuje poměrně snadný výstup do sedla, k místu, kde bývá depo lyží. Při výstupu po hřebeni k vrcholovému kříži pozor na převěje a místy exponovaný terén. Při sjezdu za jarního firnu se vyplatí počkat v sedle, než slunce změkčí stinný svah pro velkolepý odpolední sjezd západním svahem. Z nejnižšího bodu návrat na chatu nebo sjezd až do Realpu.

Piz Bernina 4048 m
Chamanna Boval / Bovalhütte Bernina Alps Switzerland
- Length of ascent7,5 km

- duration8-10,5 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦♦
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦♦
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.

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.
