Weissmies Huts

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Weissmies Hut of the SAC Olten Section is located at 2,726 meters above sea level on a sunny terrace above Saas Grund. With panoramic views of 18 four-thousand-meter peaks, it is one of the most beautifully situated mountain huts in Valais.

It is the starting point for the four-thousand-meter peaks Weissmies and Lagginhorn, the nearly four-thousand-meter Fletschhorn, the sport climbing routes on the Jegihorn South Face, the highest via ferrata in the Alps, and the Gspon High Trail.
