Whether with skis, snowboard or telemark skis - this technically easy tour will inspire you. Although this summit doesn't reach 4000m, the views to the Monte Rosa East face and the surrounding peaks are just as breathtaking. The long and diverse descents to Saas-Fee offer a fantastic off-piste adventure. After the ski lifts in Saas-Fee close we still can do this tour starting from the Britannia hut and finishing in Saas-Fee.
