Description

This hike is designed to be a continuation of the hike from Saturday: https://www.hiking-buddies.com/routes/events/12306/, but feel free to also join it as a standalone hike

Route: From St-Luc we first follow Bisse de St Jean (https://www.les-bisses-du-valais.ch/fr/Bisse/Bisse-de-St-Jean/) and then ascend to Roc de la Tsa (the last part on the ridge is unmarked T3) and to Roc d'Orzival. From there we descend to Crêt du Midi. From there we take gondola down, or if we still have energy we can walk partially downhill.

Pace: With multiplier approximately 1.2x compared to the SwissTopo time. This hike is not suitable for beginners.

Starting point: Wellness Hostel St-Luc

End point: Crêt du Midi

How to get there: Join the hike on the previous day:  https://www.hiking-buddies.com/routes/events/12306/ :) Or use public transport, if available.

How to get back: Gondola to Vercorin and Chalais. From there bus and trains back to Zurich.

What to take: Regular hiking equipment, in particular comfortable shoes (hiking boots or trail running shoes); food - we’ll have picnic lunch somewhere along the way; water; sunscreen; sunglasses; warmer clothes.

Disclaimer: I'm not a guide - everyone hikes at their responsibility and risk.
