Sustenhorn (day 1, h.r. Swiss Glacier) 3503 m

Tierberglihütte Urner Alps Switzerland
- Length of ascent4,4 km
- ascent1640 m
- duration6-8 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊
- Technical difficulty ♦♦◊◊
A very popular tour of glacial terrain. Start at Hotel Steingletscher (Sustenpass road, parking) or Tierbergli hütte. From the parking a large elevation of 1700 m. Technically not very demanding tour, but conditionally yes. Route parameters are listed at the start of the Hotel Steingletscher and from the peak of Sustenhorn leads downhill to Tierbergli.
Grosses Grünhorn 4044 m

Konkordiahütte Berner Alpen / Alpes bernoises Switzerland
- Length of ascent7 km
- ascent1380 m
- duration6,5-8,5 h
- Fitness difficulty ♦♦♦◊

Gross Grünhorn is the only 4000 meter in the Konkordiahütte area. The ascent leads from Konkordiaplatz along the edge of the Ewigschneefeld glacier and then along the northwestern slopes of the Grünhorn ridge. Beware of glacier cracks around the saddle between Grünegghorn and Gross Grünhorn. Not far from the saddle is a ski depot, from which you can go up with crampons and ice ax. The descent along the ascent route is safer than the descent variant through Grüneggfirn (glacier cracks).
Oberbachernspitze / Croda Fiscalina Ovest 2677 m

Sextener Dolomiten / Dolomiti Sesto - Sexten, Fischleintal Dolomiti Italy
- Length of ascent km
- ascent1250 m
- duration h

The ski tour to Oberbachernspitze is extremely interesting. From the Fischleintal valley, Talschlusshütte is heading for the wild valley of Rio Fiscalino. Under the monumental mountain Zwölferkogel turn right and climb a narrow gutter to the west. Further progress through the rugged terrain, to the right is the Zsigmondy Hütte. Continue to the right, northwest. The final passage through the steeper slope is not demanding on orientation. From the top a wonderful view to Tre Cime.
