Description
Chamonix and Zermatt might have the most famous 4000ers but the Saas valley has the best selection of easy ones! The whole valley is lined on both sides with beautiful glaciated mountains that are ideal for the beginner or intermediate alpine climber to gain mileage on.
For more experienced climbers these peaks are still worth visiting for the views alone - the vistas from the summits listed here are amongst the finest in the Alps and will provide you with plenty of inspiration and a big ticklist regardless of what grade you climb!
Adventures
A fantastic traverse of a popular peak, starting from a remote hut.
A long journey up a relatively straightforward snowy peak, popular in the spring too.
A long glacial journey up a complicated glacier to a remote summit.
Possibly the easiest 4000er in the Alps which enjoys spectacular views
A beautiful summit with a characteristic sawtooth N Ridge, here climbed most easily from the opposite side.
A great one day trip to the summit of a gorgeous 4000er
A scenic hike which puts you in position for further adventures.
A short trip to a well positioned hut.
