| Whether skiing, snowboarding or telemarking, this
technically easy trip will quickly inspire you. Although
the summit isn’t quite 4000 m high, the different
types of ski runs to Mattmark / Saas-Almagell
are long and varied. One is more intoxicating than the
next. A beautifully decorated wooden summit cross
and the view of the eastern face of the Monte Rosa
are further highlights of a trip that is full of delightful
moments. |

| Climb a 4000-meter peak on skis with climbing irons?
If you have some experience in ski touring, then this
delightful winter journey beginning at the Allalin
mountain station is just right for you. The ascent leads
over a large crevasse zone en route to Feejoch and
from there over a steep shoulder to the fore summit.
Climbing irons facilitate the way over a short ridge to
the summit. The postcard views of Mont Blanc, Matterhorn
and Piz Bernina are truly a delight to behold.
The descent is short, but the memories will stay with
you for a long time. |

| Are you looking for a challenge. Are you acclimatised,
physically fit and have you already completed several
ski tours? If so, you should consider the Alphubel.
Holding onto the rope of a Saas-Fee Guide you will
negotiate glacier crevasses and successfully master
turning on the steep summit slopes, before enjoying
a breathtaking view from the summit plateau. After a
well-deserved rest at the summit, a fantastic descent
awaits you along with the good feeling of having mastered
one of the most difficult ski tours in Saas-Fee. |

| A gleaming glacier mountain with a majestic view. In
the winter the perfect skiing mountain for ski mountaineers
of all fitness levels. During the first section
of the ascent you will cross a short section of the
SKI TOURS
Hohlaub glacier. After a 3-hour ascent that grows
steadily steeper, you will reach the Adler Pass. Here
you will enjoy the first views of the Monte Rosa group
and the impending summit ascent, which leads over
wide glaciated areas to a summit ridge. The last few
metres to the summit cross are rewarded with a panoramic
view that on a clear day stretches all the way
from the mountains of Northern Italy to the plains of
the Po River. Aside from the well-known ski routes,
a Saas-Fee Guide will lead you safely down to Mattmark
Lake. |

| If you are looking for the most unforgettable way to
travel from Saas-Fee to Zermatt then you should join
us for this adventure. The Metro Alpin will take you
to the intermediate station. You will then cross the
Hohlaub glacier and climb to the Adler Pass. The long
descent to Zermatt, steep at the outset, is a part of
the famous “Haute Route”, a ski tour that takes several
days from Saas-Fee to Chamonix. As you head downwards towards Zermatt, the Matterhorn
will grow ever more imposing. |

| Allalinpass 3564m |
|
Ascent: 2 hrs
Total altitude difference: 2115m
Price per person: 280.- CHF (min. 3 Pers.)

| A delightful tour both visually and spiritually. The
closer you get to the level of the Pass during your ascent,
the more majestic the 4000-metre peaks seem
to get. The descent, mainly over slopes of powder
snow, leads to a valley with isolated hunters lodges.
There you will have time for an enjoyable lunch on
knotty wooden benches, before descending via a forest
road down to Täsch. |
