Valais, Switzerland · 4 days · 42-mile loop · huts
In June 2023 I hiked the Tour des Dents du Midi in Valais, Switzerland: a loop from Saint-Maurice up to the Auberge de Chindonne, along the high meadows past Anthème to the Refuge de Bonavau, over the snowy Col de Susanfe to Lac de Salanfe, and over the Col du Jorat back down through Mex. 42 miles on the loop on my GPS, plus a first day cut short by hail. It's the trip from my film Hiking 50 miles on the Dents du Midi in Switzerland. This guide has my GPS files, maps and notes for every day, the huts and how to book them in 2026 and 2027 (the Cabane de Susanfe is closed for rebuilding in 2027), trains and buses from Geneva, and the early-season snow on the Col de Susanfe.
