モンノブルの峠・トップ12

The Col du Sanetsch is certainly one of Switzerland's classic mountain passes, even though it can only be approached by road bike from the south. There are two alternative routes: one starts in Sion, the other, this one, in Conthey. Above the village of Daillon, the two roads converge and the steeper part of the climb begins. While there is only a parking lot at the Col du Sanetsch, the highest point, you can continue on the paved road to the reservoir (Lake Sanetsch). There is an inn there. The cable car station, which offers a ride down to Gsteig bei Gstaad, is also located here. This makes the pass a perfect circular tour.

The hike from Lac de Moiry to Col de Torrent is great and the descent to Evolène is largely rideable. Top tip!

When planning your trip, always keep the post buses in mind. You can easily travel to the reservoir (from Zinal) or from La Sage to Arolla, for example, by post bus. As always, take a break on the pass and take your time. When there are clouds, there are always windows where they break away and reveal a wonderful view.

A technical and isolated Alpine pass, nestled under the Pointe du Bandon. The pass, as well as the drive up to the pass, has a wild and desolate feel - a great place to visit for that wild mountain feeling we all love.

Col de Torrent 2916 m Mountain and alpine hiking This is another good, big pass that leads from the Val d’Hérens into the Val de Moiry. It lies on a high, wide ridge between Pointe du Prélet and Sasseneire. The path is very attractive and offers a great panorama.

The Col de Torrent is located at an altitude of 2,919 metres. The ascent from Les Haudères is quite steep for most of the way, but the trail isn't particularly technical. The descent from the opposite side is just as impressive, with breathtaking views and well-maintained trails that take you close to the beautiful lakes of Autannes and Moiry. The panorama from the top is simply wonderful, with lakes and glaciers as a backdrop, giving you an extraordinary and immersive view of the surrounding valleys (Val d'Anniviers and Val d'Herens).

The Pas de Lona is a hiking pass located at an altitude of 2787 meters connecting Eison in the Val d'Hérens, to Grimentz via the Col des Becs-de-Bosson, or the Moiry dam via the Basset de Lona, in the Val d'Hérens. of Anniviers. The Becs de Bosson hut overlooks the pass on the ridge to the north of the pass, below the eponymous summit. Located on the Grand Raid route between Verbier and Grimentz, it constitutes the passage most feared by participants because it requires considerable effort before being able to switch to the last section leading to Grimentz.

The most beautiful climb you have never heard of.
