Arolla :

You can take the Arolla lifts to save 400m of ascent.

For the more athletic, departure is from the Arolla parking lot. You walk up the slopes to the top of the lifts. Leave the ski slopes and head west. On your left, the impressive seracs of the Tsijiore Nouve glacier overlook the valley. Stay at the bottom of the latter to avoid the more exposed slopes on the sides. At 2738m, continue west to the summit of Pas-de-Chèvre. The Col de Riedmatten is not passable in winter. Take a moment to contemplate the panorama. Descend the ladders and moraine to the Cheilon glacier. Cross the glacier in a straight line to the western lateral moraine. Just a few more conversions and you’re in front of the Cabane des Dix, where a cup of hot tea awaits you.
