Introduction to Tour Monte Rosa
Tour Monte Rosa is a 9-day hike through the Swiss and Italian Alps around the Monte Rosa massif, a spectacular mountain range with 10 peaks higher than 4000-meter. Walking Tour Monte Rosa you'll get as close to these giant mountains and their glaciers as you can without roping up like a true alpinist.
Walking from hut to hut, you'll see the Matterhorn (4478), Breithorn (4164), Liskamm (4527) and other summits from up close, you'll get to know the Swiss Saastal and Mattertal and descend into the beautiful mountain villages of the Italian Alps.
Tour Monte Rosa is only for the very fit. It leads you over mountain passes above 3000 meters and includes one glacier crossing. You'll walk on exposed, rocky mountain trails for hours, so you'll need steady feet. For those who are fit and have hiked in the mountains before: it doesn't get much better than this.
