Anyone who spends a few days in the Saas-Fee/Saastal holiday region will wander through high alpine worlds of experience. Sometimes cold and rough, sometimes warm and lovely. The high alpine landscape is multifaceted, from rugged mountain to colourful flower meadows, from magnificent glaciers to lonely mountain lakes. A unique world plays out at dizzying heights on the four-thousand-metre peaks. Here, snow and ice dominate the landscape even in summer. The highlight up there is the breathtaking and unique view into the vastness.

Have you ever dreamed of standing on a four-thousand-metre peak? The Allalinhorn makes it possible! The summit (4027 m above sea level) is considered one of the most impressive mountains in the Saas Valley and is suitable for aspiring summiteers. With a mountain guide and good weather, you can climb the Allalinhorn relatively “easily” with a bit of endurance and good surefootedness. It remains a 4000-metre peak – caution and respect are still the top priority on the mountain.

The day before, the guests get to know the mountain guide and discuss the most important things. The day after, they start early with the gondola and the Metro Alpin – the highest underground funicular worldwide – to the Mittelallalin at 3’500 m above sea level. The guests cross over snowfields, glaciers and short rock sections. They climb the majestic Allalinhorn together with a mountain guide within about two hours. On the summit, they enjoy the fantastic view and forget the exertions of the tour! You also have at least two hours for the descent. However, relaxation and enjoyment after the mountain tour are part of the programme. In the world’s highest revolving restaurant, the proud mountaineers can indulge in Swiss and Valais specialities while enjoying a 360° view of the surrounding mountains. 

Guests can round off their mountain experience with an overnight stay in the glacier village of Saas-Fee. Whether they want to stay in a rustic mountain hut or luxuriously in a 5-star hotel with a wellness package, there is something for everyone.
