The Mont Dolent makes the frontier between France, Italy and Switzerland, it's a symbol of the massif du Mont Blanc and offers one of the greatest hike of Switzerland.Unfortunately starting at 11 am was too late to reach the top. From the Grand col Ferret 2537m to the glacier the lane is tagged with big yellow circles. 1h-1h30 from the Grand Col Ferret to Refuge Fiorio (2800 m) where I had a...

Hiking | 11.2 miles
Hiking | 11.2 miles
Difficult hike for the more experienced hiker (not suitable for tourists :D).This hike takes you from the village Zinal to Cabane du Grand Mountet after a 4h climb. After resting there we climb down to the Glacier de Zinal to follow the "nouveau chemin" to Cabane du Petit Mountet. To do this part we have to cross over the Zinal Glacier (Glacier de Zinal). From Cabane du Petit Mountet we head back...
So after taking a recommendation from a group of experienced looking swiss hikers we decided to go to Fafleralp which is a bus ride away from Gopperstein the first stop after Lötschberg on the slow train between Bern and Brig. The area was beautiful with a wonderful range of colors on the hillsides since the blueberry plants had bright red leaves. The trail isn't steep but is consistently up and so a bit of...

Hiking | 3.7 miles
Hiking | 3.7 miles
Sehr schöne Wanderung, etwa 1h20-2h.Mit der Bahn vom Zürich Hauptbahnhof bis Uetliberg. (Vor allem im Winter empfiehlt sich die Abfahrt ab dem Hauptbahnhof, um bereits am Bahnhof einen Sitzplatz zu finden, da ansonsten die Fraktion der Schlittenfahrer die Bahn komplett einnimmt.)Einmal oben angekommen, gleich zum Hotel Uto Kulm laufen, und von dort aus dem gelben Wegweiser Richtung Felsenegg folgen. Sehr gut ausgeschildert, man kann nichts falsch machen oder sich verlaufen.Man geht über lange...
Unfortunately my GPS-device had an error after the hike. So I had to draw the track manually (which is not quite accurate!).The suspension bridge over the glacial lake "Trift" is with 102 meter the longest in Europe.
After-work hike from Col du Jaman to Dent du Jaman (1875m).
Route:Sunegga - Blauherd - Fluealp - Grindjesee - Grünsee - Ze Seewjinen - Findelenbach - Winkelmatten - Zermatt

A hike which allows you a to see a big part of the Alpstein.Starting from the station of the aerial tramway in Brülisau you mount, after a rather flat introduction, quite steep through Brüeltobel to Plattenbödeli, then in a moderate ascent to Bollenwees. Nice view of Sämtisersee and Alp Sämtis on this part of the hike.Make a rest at Bollenwees an enjoy the view on lake Fälensee and the Altmann mountain. Then...
