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 .

L´Omen Roso is a relatively easy to reach 3000 peak on the edge of the Valais Alps. The ascent begins either in the Turtmannhütte or in the St. Luc ski area in Val d´Anniviers. The usual is this ski tour last stage of the Haute Route Tour du Ciel. From the hut up to the crest and the descent on the other side, into the valley. A technically undemanding ski tour. On the upper ridge, watch out for the cornices.

Bourg St.P.-Valsorey, Day3 H.R.Chamx-Zermatt 3030 m

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.

The last stage of the Haute Route Chamonix - Zermatt is an ode to skiing. After an easy ascent to three saddles - Col de Eveque, Col du Mont Brulé and Col Valpelline. Every ski mountaineer will be amazed by the panorama of the impressive 4000m peaks - Dent Blanche, Matterhorn and Dent d´Hérens. This is followed by a 10 km descent to Zermatt.
