Tierberglücke & Sacklimi, these are two saddles between huts. If not ideal conditions, it is a very difficult tour. The Tierberglücke saddle waits for a 1300 m steep downhill ride on the western slope of the Zwischen Tierbergen glacier. Locally challenging and avalanche. After crossing the creek from Triftgletscher, a very difficult ascent takes place through a narrow corridor, often turning every 5 meters. There follows a wide crest that rises to Sacklimi saddle. In the ascent finish to Sacklimi is route steep and there is a avalanche risk. The downhill is easy and the final ascent to the Trift Hut also.

Chli Bielenhorn je skalnatá špička v říši monumentálních žulových stěn divokých hor. Začátek kolem silnice na Furkapass pokračuje po pláni pod chatou Albert-Heim-Hütte. Pak přichází v sousedství pohled na ledovce monumentálního Dammastocku. V kulisách skal vede logická linie ke skidepu kousek pod vrcholem. V případě stabilního sněhu je fajn alternativou sjezdová linie jižně od výstupové stopy a dále členitým terénem k hotelu Tiefenbach a v okolí silnice nebo po ní zpět do Realpu.

Vyhlídková, poměrně jednoduchá túra po hřebeni na Piz Badus přes Pazolastock. Na start túry je snadná cesta vlakem z Andermattu. Pozor na laviny při traverzu Pazolastocku. První sjezd je lehký a bezpečný. Logická výstupová linie přes hřeben pod Piz Badus. Na vrchol v mačkách nebo na lyžích, podle podmínek. Letecký pohled na Andermatt. Při sjezdu z Piz Badus pozor na strmý úsek za jezerem. Po nalepení pásů závěrečných 100 výškových metrů do sedla Oberalppass k vlaku (jezdí každou hodinu).

Hiking on top of fantastic lookout tower. Glacier skitour. At the end, you will reach the summit from the north, to the top of the climbing terrain. Next continue to the Diechterlimi saddle and from there a fantastic downhill run to Gelmerhütte and then to the Gelmersee dam. If the lake is not frozen, the route along the northern bank can be very challenging, depending on the snow conditions. After crossing the dam, is coming downhill, often very complicated, traversing western slope to the Grimselpass road. After that, a bit on the parking lot under the Räterichsboden dam and at first a steep traverse to Bächlihütte - a hut on the top.
