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.

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.

After Tödi, Clariden is the second most popular ski tour in the Glarus Alps. The ascent leads along the gentle Claridenfirn glacier from Claridenhütte to the foot of Clariden and then through a wide northeast slope to the top pyramid. Beautiful views of the entire Glarus Alps and the neighboring Uri Alps. Descent copies the ascent track. A popular alternative is to continue crossing the Planura hut after descending the steep slope turn right to Claridenpass.
