Mont-Rose "Spaghetti Tour"

Mont-Rose "Spaghetti Tour"

The Spaghetti Tour is a "must" of the alpine adventure in one of the highest massifs of the Alps, in the heart of the Monte Rosa glaciers. Our itinerary starts in Zermatt and ends 5 days later in the Tash valley. It is a fantastic tour where we climb the most beautiful peaks of Monte Rosa such as Breithorn, Castor, Ludwigshohe, Zumstein, Vincent Pyramid, or Naso du Lyskamm, other peaks can be considered depending on the size of the group and the conditions. Every evening we spend the night in an Italian refuge on Mont-Rose where it is not unusual to eat spaghetti with tomato sauce! For those who love gastronomy.
