a three or two day hiking trip (sleeping in a hut)

i live in lausanne and a friend is coming over for vacation. We want to do a hike in the mountains for 2 or 3 days and sleep in a hut. Anyone has a suggestion for a nice hiking trip?

I often use this site, is in German, but I am sure, you will get the information needed.

Do not know what month you intend to go or your level but possibilities Kandersteg to Leukerbad or the other way, staying either at the Schwarnbach hotel or the Lämmerenhütte


Chanrion hut from Mauvoisin gpoing up one side of the valley and down the other


For three days Lourtier to Panossiere; Panossiere to Chanrion and back down


Verbier to Arolla via the Prafleuri hut. Possible to do it in 3 short days by st<ying in the Dix Hut as well.


 


There is a book

If you stay in SAC huts you get a discount if you are a member or if you are a member of say the Dutch or German alpine clubs

End of July should be no problem with the snow.  With level (let us say T3) as a general rule of thumb you can get up to any hut up to 2500 metres.  The book I mentioned includes the the dirrent routes to the huts indicating the difficulty level but this should also be indicated on the hut website. 


If you have set your mind on a particular hut / walk send me an email on [email protected] and I will look at the book and try to answer.

Kandersteg to Leukerbad stayiing at http://www.schwarenbach.ch/ finishing in the thermal baths at Leukerbad


best to ring them to ask about snow conditions. It has snowed quite low down recently, but should be ok in July
