    Or, if you’re feeling brave, the Mont-Fort hut isn’t much further! After descending a few metres, the path starts to climb again, winding around the Gentianes ski lift on the right. You’ll then climb for a few minutes alongside the cable car before turning right and continuing until you reach the bottom of a large pylon . From here, you’ll be able to see the Mont-Fort hut above you. After a steeper final ascent, you’ll arrive at the end of the hike, where rösti, fondue and many other local dishes will be waiting to help you recover!
    On Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays between 9am and 11.30am, this route is shared with the Takitrek dog sledding activity.
