Ski tour from Saas Fee, view of the Strahlhorn

Thanks to the Saas Fee cable cars, we can go on a beautiful ski tour together to the 4000 metre peaks around Saas Fee. We start in Saas Fee and take the cable car up to around 3500 metres. In good conditions, we make the first tour to the Allalinhorn to enjoy a beautiful descent over the glacier and to the Britannia hut. We continue with the crossing over the Allalin glacier to the Rimpfischhorn and a long descent to the Täschhütte. From the Täschhütte we take a slightly longer tour to the Alphubel and from here enjoy a long descent back to the Saas Fee ski area.
