Hi everyone, I am overwhelmed by the options in France/Switzerland. I'm not complaining, it's a good problem to have My wife and I will be in Switzerland for three weeks in September and our only purpose is to hike. I've gotten some great advice on this forum already but would like to post my tentative list of hikes to see what everyone thinks. We only have 3 weeks so I want to make sure we're making the most of it, we probably won't be able to take a trip like this again for a few years. We're travelling with a baby, we've taken her on lots of hikes already and grandma/grandpa will be babysitting for any difficult hikes, scrambling, or hut overnights. We can probably do 2 or 3 overnight hikes in our three weeks, but don't want to do any consecutive overnights. Thanks!
Chamonix: 2 days/1 night, hike/via ferrata to refuge du couvercle and back
Col du Grand St. Bernard
Verbier: 2 days/1 night, Cabane Mont Fort to Cabane de Prafleuri (overnight) to Arolla. Not sure if this is best use of one of our overnights?
Zinal: Hike to Cabane du Grand Mountet or Cabane de Tracuit? Not sure which is better
Zermatt: Train to Gornegrat, walk down to Rifelsee. Or dayhike to Monte Rosa hut and back?
Lauterbrunnen: Schnige Platte to Faulhorn to First
Lauterbrunnen: Cablecar to Mannlichen, walk down to Kleine Scheidegg, up to Eigergletscher, down to Alpigen
Lauterbrunnen: Grutschalp to Murren, cablecar to Schilthorn and back. Walk to Gimmelwald, cablecar to Stechelberg, walk to Lauterbrunnen
Altesch Glacier: Walk to Marjelensee from Rideralp, Bettmermalp, or Bettmerhorn? Or possibly walk to Konkordia Hut and overnight?
Grimselpass: Hike to Sidelhorn or hike up to ridge overlooking Rhone Glacier? Not sure which is better
Sustenpass: Hike to Tierberglihutte or hike to Trifthutte? Not sure which is better
