From Saas Fee to Zermatt with the climb of Breithorn (4162 m)
This glacier tour has great appeal because of its overwhelming high mountains. We will find our way over the glaciers between these mountains and in the end, fully acclimatized, we will climb Breithoorn, at an altitude of 4162 m.
The first day will start with instructions on the glacier high above Saas Fee in the use of ice ax, crampons and rope. Then we will go to the Brittania hut (3030 m) where we stay the night. The next day beautiful glaciers take us to the Allalinpas (3564 m) after which we will descent to the Täsch hut (2701 m). It's a long day and a cold beer will taste really good. Next day we continue towards Zermatt and via the Pfulwe (3314 m) we will reach the beautifully located Fluhalp (2607 m), an age-old mountain hut and one you will instantly feel at home in. We cut across Riffelalp and Gornerschlucht and via Furgg, Trockener Steg we will arrive in the Gandegg hut (3029 m). Now we are really fit for climbing Breithorn (4162 m) the last day.
This program offers a lot of variation: some days crossing glaciers, secured by a rope, some days walking on mountain trails. This is a program for enjoyers.
