10 Day Haute Route
This Chamonix Zermatt Haute Route has a mid week start and is spread over ten days to maximise chances of completing the itinerary.
By starting on a Wednesday, we avoid the main pulse of Haute Routers starting at the weekend. Typically hut occupancy is at about 20% of maximum by doing this, compared to 100% when starting at the weekend. In addition, by assigning 10 days we have 3 days in reserve to reach Zermatt in the event of bad weather. If all goes smoothly and we reach Zermatt in 7 days, we have the option of continuing on to Saas and beyond.
