Rockfax Description
II, 50m, 30 minutes. A fun little route which rewards your efforts of walking all the way up the Glacier du Tour with some spectacular views into the Valais Alps of Switzerland. Climb the 30 degree snow slope and then follow the easy but fun rocky ridge to the summit.
Descent - Reverse the route. © Rockfax

βeta: The snow slope has significantly different of what I could see in the guidebook pictures. It was not that "gentle", maybe because it was late summer. It was still gentle enough for Aga on her first Alpine climb.
