At the beginning of May, we go on 4,000 metre peaks and ski tours together. In May, the conditions on the 4,000-metre peaks of the Bernese Oberland are perfect and we make the most of the days by climbing four 4,000-metre peaks together, including Mönch, Fiescherhörner and Finsteraarhorn. We scramble over easy ridges with ice axes and crampons and climb somewhat steeper firn sections. Always well secured, of course, and coached in a 3-man rope team with the mountain guide. On the last day we undertake the fantastic tour over the Galmihorn and descend into Goms. Depending on the snow conditions, we descend into the Lötschental at the end of May. Here you can ski down for a long time and the bus goes up to 1800 metres.
