Description
The area around Saas-Fee in Switzerland is tremendous. Filled with some of the most beautiful peaks in the Swiss Alps, the views are unbelievable. However, on this trip, you will not just get to enjoy the area’s great views, you will get to climb to the summits of several of those aforementioned peaks!
For 5 glorious days, you will be ski mountaineering to the summits of the following peaks: Allalinhorn (4,027m), Alphubel (4,206m), Strahlhorn (4,190m) and Rimpfischhorn (4,199m). Each one of these amazing peaks will offer you exciting descents. And the glacial landscape will truly dazzle you.
In addition to the 4 peaks you will be scaling, all of which are part of the Alps’ 82, 4,000 meter plus peaks, you will be spending your nights in different mountain huts. Those huts include the Taschhutte and the Britannia hut. You will also be spending a night in the lovely Saas-Fee Inn as well.
Throughout this trip, you will be ascending between 1,050 to 1,500 meters per day and trekking for approximately 8 hours per day. As a result, along with having prior ski mountaineering experience, participants should also be in good physical condition.
Saas-Fee in Switzerland is a wondrous place. And on this 5-day trip, I would like to take you to the heights of that wonder as you make your way to 4 different amazing summits. If that sounds like an adventure you want to be a part of, just send me a request.
I also offer a 6-day ski mountaineering trip that will take you to 9 different summits on the Monte Rosa massif.
