Like all other high valleys in the region, the rocky slope was once covered by ice masses. After the glaciers retreated, the impressive hollow forms of the high valleys remained, together with the masses of rubble that the glaciers had left behind, and the majestic, bizarre and rugged shapes of the summit regions remained - jagged ridges, steeply sloping rock faces in the summit areas. Behind the rocky slope you can see a steep edge that is dominated to the right by the summit of Tete de Millot. To the left of this you can see the foothills of the Turtmann Glacier.

View of Cabane de Tracuit

Highlight • Viewpoint

View towards the peaks and the cabin. The hike to this location is one way, there are no loops. If you decide to go there, allow at least 3 hours round trip. The cabin is open in high season and has 120 places to sleep. It's not free, you have to pay. More information here: tracuit.ch/fr_fr

Follow the path towards Cabane du Tracuit but head east towards Torrent du Barmé. Superb meadow to stop, have a snack and cool off in the stream.
