The route from Bourg-Saint-Pierre to the Cabane Valsorey definitely transfers famous traverse haute route Chamonix Zermatt to Swiss territory. It is not too difficult to climb to the hut from the village. Pay attention to the avalanche danger on the last ascent to the hut on the southwest slope, especially on sunny days. It is therefore good to leave Bourg-St-Piere early in the morning.

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.

A relatively easy ascent, though steep in places, from Lake Turtmannsee, which is reached by descending from the Turtmannhütte. From the summit ridge, there's a long descent to the Hotel Weisshorn, followed by forest trails leading down to the village of St. Luc - Chandolin in the Val d'Anniviers.
