11 Tips For Loving the Walker's Haute Route

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- Easily my most challenging hike. 120 miles (200k) of never ending ups and down on a route where other people were few and far between. But something I'm so proud for having done. I recommend 11 days and doing the full route, plus some tips I picked up along the way (see video details). Good luck with your trip planning!

JUst completed the HR and sorry we didn't go to the Cabande de Dix. We had rest day in Arolla. Great video - thanks
Great spot to take a rest day! Hope you got good weather!
Beautifully filmed! We just did the Haute Route. I recommend taking a rest day in the middle, then u will enjoy it more
Love the idea of a rest day. What spot would you have picked?
@@johnsonism We would have stayed an extra day in Zinal. Could have used the swimming pool or the hotel spa, then continued the trek.
Great call! Wonderful spot to treat yourself after a relatively short day from Cabaine de Moiry.
@@johnsonism We did not go to Cabane de Moiry, we went from La Sage to Zinal, so over 2 passes. A long day!
@@andreafreely9308 Brutal! And love it! You definitely earned a rest day.
Great video! Crisp and clear and thank you very much for letting the picture talk instead of yourself talking into the camera! Clearly outstanding vs. many other much longer videos with less content!
Thank you so much for the feedback!
I enjoyed your video. I plan on doing the route in half of june.
Hope you get great weather! Have fun putting the trip together!
extraordinary! thank you for sharing this amazing journey. Good luck with your adventures and your channel, I know how much effort you must be putting in, subscribed ✌🏻
Thank you! Very excited to explore your channel! Aussie camping looks amazing!
Nice video. I won't be able to do this one this year, but I'm aiming for summer 2025 for the WHR. Nobody else mentioned alternatives for the Europahütte, so thank you for offering a few backup ideas.
Yeah, I bet a lot of people skip the section due to lack of availability. But I would happily walk an extra few miles to get the full experience!
Beautiful film! And thank you for the tips - we are hiking the HR this summer ::))
Good luck and enjoy!
do you even need a tent for a hike like this? Looks incredible
People have, but I think you miss out on the fun of the huts/hotels. Mt. Fort, Moiry, Europahutte were all incredible, Arolla had the best food, and it's where you meet so many people, which I think makes the trip far more memorable. So go tent free!
You said on day you hiked from Chamonix to Trient, 14 miles - according to my guidebook the distance is closer to 17 miles. Did you take a shorter route?
Yes! I opted for the gondola out of Verbier, as the day was long enough. Really nice to have the extra time at Mont Fort to enjoy the view : )
Another approach would be to take the gondola from Le Chable to Verbier and walk from there, as you would get far better scenery.
What were the dates of this hike?
I started on August 6th to be sure that the snow had melted out.
