Entry into the world of the 4,000 metre peaks | Bishorn | High tour course with application tour

The high tour course around and on the Bishorn is the perfect introduction to the magnificent mountain world of the 4000 metre peaks around Zermatt. During these 4 days, we will learn and experience how to tackle high-altitude tours and what to look out for. We'll be travelling with you in an empathetic and modern way and will teach you the art of mountaineering. We will arrive comfortably and spend the first night in the Turtmannhütte. Here we will focus on rock techniques and the basics of roping up and belaying. On the second day, we will learn how to walk with crampons on the tour from the Turtmannhütte to the Tracuithütte. We will be travelling on an impressive glacier and will be able to put what we have learnt into practice straight away. We spend the next two nights on the Cabanne du Tracuit and climb the Bishorn from here as a practice tour. On the last day there is enough time to practise the last techniques and descend into the valley.
