    Mountaineering

    Very nice, rarely full of people and fairly easy hike. Just before the cabin you'll need to do a bit of climbing and use chains. About 4-5 hours to the Tracuit hut, then breakfast at 5:00 and 2-3 hours to reach the summit. You can be back in time for an epic rösti at the hut. Lastly, all the way down to Zinal on the West side, walk past the water, it's a change of scenery and you'll reach a lovely meadow for a quick nap.

    very beautiful and lighter 4000er in Valais. Easily accessible from the Cabane de Tracuit in ~ 2-3 hours. Breakfast for the Bishorn summit aspirates is at 05:00.
