Cabane Trient is not far from the border between Switzerland and France. The Hut is a stop on the famous Haute Route Chamonix - Zermatt. It is easiest to reach the hut from the Grands Montets and Lognan cable car stations via the Col Chardonnet and Fenétre de Saleinaz saddles. Another variant of the approach leads from Le Tour. The Haute Route to Lac Champex leads through the Val d´Arpette or through the Glacier d´Orny.

The Haute Route Grande Lui variant from Chamonix to Zermatt, also known as the "Haute Route Pure", leads from La Fouly to the Grand Saint Bernard Pass. Overnight accommodation is provided in the hospice of the same name, under conditions similar to those in a mountain hut. The traverse of the slope below the Ferret lakes is particularly prone to avalanches.

ALPHUBEL (Britannia Hütte, Walliser Alpen) is seemingly lighter 4000vka, but over are dangerous glacial cracks. Ski alpinists can also go from the Saas Fee ski area, most not far from the cable car station Langfluh .

Piz Palü 3882 m
Diavolezza Berghaus Bernina Alps Switzerland
- Length of ascent6,5 km
- ascent1180 m
- duration6,5-8,5 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦♦◊
The Piz Palü with its characteristic three pillars is probably the most popular "not 4000" in the Alps. The exit from the Berghaus Diavolezza is ideal, it is also possible from the Bovalhütte. The key point for the ascent and descent is the passage of the Labyrinth between the Seraks. Continue over a relatively steep glacier to the ski depot. Then ascent with ice axe and crampons along the exposed summit ridge. The usual goal of ski mountaineers is the eastern summit - 3882 m.

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.

Na vrchol Finsteraarhorn míří náročná ledovcová túra z chaty Finsteraarhornhütte. Hned od začátku túry jsou cestou velkolepé výhledy. Náročnější je překonání skalního žebra. Po ledovci do sedla Hugisattel s leteckým pohledem na východní stěnu. Zde je skidepot a dál v mačkách a s cepínem na skialpové poměry náročným terénem. Obtížnost lezení zásadně ovlivňuje množství a konzistence sněhu na skále. Náročný sjezd prudkými svahy kopíruje linii výstupu.
