Solitude

The Grand Combin massif, just two valleys east of the famous Tour de Mont Blanc, offers sweeping panoramas across the Swiss and Italian Alps. With each twist and turn, you’ll uncover new views of snow-capped 4,000-meter peaks, glaciers that gleam against rugged cliffs, and valleys blanketed in lush greenery. It’s the kind of high-alpine beauty that makes the Tour des Combins hiking tour truly memorable - and a top choice for hikers looking for a quieter, wilder route.

Along the way, you might spot playful marmots or the elusive ibex before bedding down in quiet mountain huts that blend traditional and modern architecture, nestled in breathtaking surroundings. This Tour des Combins hut-to-hut hike is designed for experienced hikers who want long, rewarding days and the comfort of staying in well-placed huts each night.

While most of this Valais hut-to-hut trek is spent high up in the mountains, you’ll also have the opportunity to sample local culture. In the charming ancient village of St Rhemy en Bosses, you will find ‘Jambon de Bosses’, a ham product flavored with a unique local mix of mountain herbs. Climbing up to the St. Bernard Pass, you’ll be walking one of the most ancient and storied paths crossing the Alps—and at the pass you’ll find a museum documenting local history.

This high Alpine tour is for experienced hikers, offering the opportunity to savour the region’s treasures from the solitude of remote trails. We recommend it as a top pick for fit, experienced hikers who want an authentic, backcountry feel -  without having to plan everything themselves. We handle the logistics and support you throughout the trek with our e-guidebook and offline navigation app, so you can hike with real peace of mind.
