From hut to hut via Tièche Hut

The excursion covers 50 km, from Les Rousses on the route to Tseuzier Lake to Loèche-les-Bains, skirting the Bernese Alps ridge first at Rawilpass, then at the Weisshornlücke, Rothornlücke, and finally at Gemmi Pass. Its highest point is at Rothornlücke at over 3,000 meters. From hut to hut, it starts at Audannes Hut at the foot of the Wildhorn, in a unique natural amphitheater at the bottom of which you will see a magnificent lake. Then you will pass the "Cold Waters" pass. You will descend on the other side into a small valley behind the Rawyl. The path crosses a karst area before reaching Ténéhet from where you will depart via Plan des Roses and Rawilpass to reach the second hut, Wildstrubel Hut. The route continues through Weisshornlücke, whose ridge you will follow southwest to descend into the Huiton valley, which you will exit via the Gendarmes passage to then pass Pochet pass to descend toward the foot of the Bonvin mountains which you will bypass to reach the third hut, Tièche Hut. The third stage ascends the river and passes above the rocky cliff of cascades that support the Outannes plateau. You will climb toward Rothornlücke at 3,005 m. On the other side you will bypass the summit of the glacier to descend to Laemmeren Hut, which you can already see on a plateau above Laemmerenboden through which you will pass to join Gemmi Pass and then descend to Loèche-les-Bains.
