From here you can really climb the "Moiry hut" with a view of the glacier or even hike the reservoir. Just awesome !

Coming back down from the cabin, after a few bends, the view opens up widely over the valley with the lake in the foreground.

Cabane de Moiry

Highlight • Mountain Hut

One part is traditional and made of stone, the other is modern and made of wood and metal: The Cabane de Moiry, located at an altitude of 2,825 meters, was built in 1924 and received a panoramic extension in 2010. Now, not only from the terrace, but also from the interior, you can enjoy direct views of the Moiry Glacier and the Zinalrothorn opposite.

More information, including prices and opening hours, can be found at cabane-de-moiry.ch/home.php.

Hiking in a mighty glacier landscape along the moraine

A beautiful short mountain hike with a challenging climb to the SAC Cabane de Moiry. The entire hike offers magnificent views of the glacier and the lakes. The postal bus takes you directly from Zinal via Grimentz to the starting point, Moiry Glacier, and back.
