ザースフェーの絶景の山頂・トップ20

The Weissmies is the highest peak of the Weissmies/Lagginhorn/Fletschhorn trio. It is listed on the new maps at only 4017 m; previously, the elevation was given as 4023 m. The six meters of elevation loss is due to the melting of the summit cap, which is made entirely of ice. In return, the secondary peak to the southeast of the highest point (formerly P. 3965) has been upgraded by seven meters to 3972 m.

When visibility is good, the summit of the Weissmies at 4,013 meters offers a magnificent view of the two other peaks of the Weissmies Group (Fletschhorn and Lagginhorn), as well as the Mischabel Group (with the Dom as its highest point) on the other side of the valley. However, during our ascent, we could see... nothing (fog).

A mountain guide is highly recommended, especially if you're doing this for the first time. You can also book one a few days in advance on site.

The Allalinhorn is a four-thousand-meter peak, perhaps the easiest in the Alps from a technical perspective. Since 1984, an underground funicular has operated along its northern flank, taking it up to 570 meters above sea level, significantly shortening the climb.

You could stay here with half board for 85ChF.

The Mischabelhütte, built at an altitude of 3,340 meters, is the third highest hut in Switzerland and the starting point for the high peaks of the Mischabels and Nadelgrat. Located between the Hohbalm and Fall glaciers, it is visible from Saas Fee and virtually the entire route. The guidebook and photos are available at: https://treksrandos.fr/alpes/valais/alpes-pennines/mischabelhutte/

The Weissmies Hut of the SAC Olten Section is located at 2,726 meters above sea level on a sunny terrace above Saas Grund. With panoramic views of 18 four-thousand-meter peaks, it is one of the most beautifully situated mountain huts in Valais. It is the starting point for the four-thousand-meter peaks Weissmies and Lagginhorn, the nearly four-thousand-meter Fletschhorn, the sport climbing routes on the Jegihorn South Face, the highest via ferrata in the Alps, and the Gspon High Trail.

Very tasty food, half board, 2 group entree options in the evening - would definitely go again!
