    Tips

    November 20, 2023

    La Croix de Fer offers stunning views of vast expanses of Swiss mountains and the valleys that run through them, as well as the Trient Glacier and Lake Emosson. Access to this point in summer requires a modest amount of climbing, as well as some exposure in places following the ridge. The exceptional location of this point, however, makes it a great little excursion, with enough challenges to make it interesting.
