The stage begins at the Cabane Tracuit with an ascent of the 4,000-meter peak Bishorn, which is considered relatively easy. After skiing back down to the Tracuit hut, the route continues with a descent over the Turtmanngletscher glacier. A subsequent climb over the Brunegggletscher glacier leads into a rocky corridor, which marks the beginning of the descent to the Turtmannhütte.

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.

La Luette je vděčná túra z chaty Cabane Dix. Po mírném svahu na ledovec Glacier de la Luette a v závěru po hřebenu na vrchol. Pouhých 500 výškových metrů od chaty může být lákadlem pro odpolední túru poté, když dorazíte brzo na chatu Dix.

Tour du Ciel (known as the reverse direction of the Haute Route Impériale) begins with the first real stage from the Schönbiel Hut, featuring a descent along the edge of the moraine. This is followed by a long, steep climb over glacier seracs, ideally tackled in the early morning. The subsequent ascent over the Hohlwäng Glacier to the Col Durand (3404 m) is then straightforward. An alternative is to turn right before the pass and climb Mont Durand. From the pass, descend over the Glacier Durand, followed by a short climb to the Cabane Mountet.
