Tour description

This tour starts where the Bedretto tour ended, at Munster in the Rhone Valley. From there the tour goes, in northern direction, through the magnificent Lauteraarregion. Beside the tour as described, the area offers al lot of opportunities varying from an easy day tour to a long and demanding alternatives. The Lauteraarregion has a lot of high mountains like the Finsteraarhorn, Oberaarhorn or the Lauteraarhorn. To travel through this region you have to cross glaciers. Your preparation should be according to high altitude circumstances. Some of the huts, like the Galmihorn hütte and the Lauteraarhütte are likely to be unguarded. In case of bad weather or snow conditions you might be stuck in a hut because some of them are hard to reach, especially the Lauteraarhutte. This rewarding tour ends in Innertkirchen. In case you have just one car, it might be a good idée to park it in Interlagen and travel by train to Munster. From Innertkirchen you can take a taxi to the next railway station that will bring you to Interlagen again.
