Tour de Soleil

Logo Alpenverein Edelweiss

Wie kann ich Mehrtagestouren effektiv planen?

One of the moderately well-known routes is the Tour de Soleil, which starts in Realp and ends in the Binntal valley. The route runs primarily from north-east to south-west, always stays above 1,800 metres above sea level and spends the night in Swiss and Italian huts. The mountains do not necessarily have illustrious names, but some of them are quite technically demanding and are often around or just above the 3,000 metre mark.

The route allows for several variations and detours - depending on time, desire and mood. The advantage is that the must-do daily stages can be kept relatively short (up to 1,200 metres) with the right planning and you can take afternoon tours from the hut with a light pack. This is easy on the back and extends the range of movement.

The car is parked in Realp near the railway station and the return journey is comfortable with the SBB (Swiss Railways). The advantage of this is that you can also stop in between if, for example, the weather doesn't play ball.

Tips and suggestions

Why ski tours in Switzerland

The Swiss Alps are ideal for multi-day crossings. There are several reasons for this:

  • Excellent (free) map material thanks to Swisstopo
  • Comprehensive guide literature
  • Very good hut infrastructure
  • Flexible transfer options with public transport
  • Professional rescue service (REGA) including relatively good mobile phone networks in alpine terrain

You should be aware that, in addition to good planning skills (map reading, orientation, time management, ...), you need a good (ideally homogeneous) group with appropriate skills (technique, fitness) and a bit of luck (weather, conditions, snow conditions).

Coordinates

Book recommendation by the author, author’s map recommendations.

High-alpine winter equipment incl. light glacier equipment (harness, rope, metal gear, light crampons, light ice axe).

As a rule, no ice equipment is required - light equipment is sufficient.

If you are travelling in the hut season, you do not need a thick sleeping bag, but only a thin hut sleeping bag or inlay.

A helmet is not absolutely necessary, as there is hardly any danger of falling rocks or ice. However, it is always useful for skiing.

Tour Soleil Ski Tour

The Tour Soleil Ski Tour is a brilliant and varied week, starting and finishing in Switzerland, but travelling into the Italian Formazza Valley – home to the Walser people. Reliable snow and good weather, combine with small friendly huts and non of the crowds of the better known areas. Most days it’s not unusual to have a classic peak or great descent all to yourself.

Trip overview

tour soleil ski tour with alpine guides

This is an excellent quiet touring area with plenty of accessible ski summits and good varied descents, on both powder and spring snow. Their are several ways to traverse through the range, linking up the hut system. We may do the tour West to East as described, or the other way round depending on snow conditions.  We start the tour with the adventure of a night in a rarely used hut, then for the rest of the week the huts have hot showers each night – two nights are spent in a couple of the huts, allowing us to enjoy skiing with a lighter pack on.

Detailed Itinerary

You should arrange outward travel on Saturday, arriving by 6-7pm latest in time for the briefing at your accommodation. Your guide will run through kit checks and safety routines, as well as hand out any rental equipment, before going on to discuss the current weather and mountain conditions and how these affect our plans. We’ll have maps and guidebooks of the area to show you, so if you’ve any further questions or last minute requests, then this is the ideal time to bring them up. Overnight in the valley.

tour de soleil skitour

Early train to Feisch, from where we skin up the Binn Tal to the Mittlenberg Hut, or the nearby Binntal hut.

Inaccessible and hidden away in the back of beyond, these huts have a remote ‘lost world’ feel – and by the time you reach the hut after three or four hours march, you really do feel in the middle of nowhere! The Binntal hut is unguarded in winter, but has a newly renovated winter room with bunks, blankets and cooking equipment. Food can be purchased in the hut, but must be cooked independently by the group.

850m ascent ~4hrs

tour de soleil skitour

There are several different ways of reaching the Margaroli Hut in Italy, from the Binntal in Switzerland – so this is a day that can be varied depending on conditions and the fitness of the party.

All involve crossing one or two cols in order to pick up good descents on either north facing powder, or south facing spring snow.

The Hut itself lies next to Lago Vannino – depending on the route taken, we may have to skate or skin across the lake in order to reach it. Like most italian huts, there’s a good bar and a friendly welcome awaiting – the Margaroli also has hot showers and free broadband, so it’s a good place to spend 2 nights.

600-1100m ascent and descent, depending on route taken ~4-6hrs.

tour de soleil skitour

Like many peaks in the area, the Offenhorn has two names: one Swiss and one Italian (Punta D’Arbola). Either way, it’s a classic ski peak of the region – with extensive views east to the Monta Rosa chain.

Depending on conditions, a choice of descents is possible – if there is powder around, the north facing descent down the Sabbione Glacier is excellent, or if spring snow conditions are better, then the SE facing descent down to Lago Vannino is also a superb choice.

In the latter case, the route back to the Margaroli Hut involves skating across the lake over the ice – if the lake is snow covered, then it’s half an hours skinning instead!

1100m ascent and descent ~5-6hrs.

tour de soleil skitour

The day starts with an hours climb up to the Passo di Nefelgiu, which gives access to a long north facing descent finishing at the tiny hamlet of Riale, which is the highest village in Val Formazza and a good example of the distinctive local architecture of the region.

There’s also a café and bar here, so it’s a good opportunity to enjoy a mid morning break and soak up the beautiful surroundings.

In the afternoon, we skin up a long, snowy track on the far side of the valley to the Maria Luisa Hut.  Having an uphill finish makes this day feel pretty hard, but there’s hot showers and a good bar at the hut to aid recovery!

800m ascent and descent ~5hrs

tour de soleil skitour

There are numerous good day tours all around the Maria Luisa Hut, allowing us to spend a day skiing here with lighter packs on.

To the north of the hut, the Rotentalhorn offers a good viewpoint and a great ski back down again, usually on spring snow.

To the east there are a number of options, including a circular tour of the cols north of Basodino.  Stable conditions are required here, as there are a number of sections on steeper terrain, but the tour finishes with a superb descent down the long, broad couloir dropping off the Kastellucke.

Our final choice will depend on current snow and weather conditions.

~800m ascent and descent 5hrs

tour de soleil skitour

Skiing down into the Upper Rhone Valley near Munster is one of our favourite ways to finish the Tour Soleil. An early start and careful assessment of conditions are required, as the various descent routes all pass through steep sided valleys in order to reach the train line down in the main valley.

The reward is a long north facing descent that’s not often skied, so usually there are plenty of fresh tracks to be had.

Back in the valley, there’s time to enjoy a lunch time drink before hopping on the train back to Brig to finish the week.

1200m ascent, 2000m descent ~7-8hrs

PM return to Brig on the train

Return travel should be arranged on Saturday morning, after your final nights accommodation.

Location and Travel

Your course starts and finishes in Brig in the Rhone Valley, with easy access and good links to the Bernese Oberland, Valais Alps and the SE Swiss Alpine chain. The most convenient way to reach Brig is fly into Geneva, then take a train along the Rhone Valley – Brig is on the main railway line, and our hotel is a short walk from the train station.

Flights and transfers

  • Fly to Geneva with numerous budget airlines, for an overview of the best options check out the excellent Sky Scanner website.
  • Train from Geneva airport to Brig (1.5 hrs):  https://www.sbb.ch/en/home.html (integrated Swiss travel website)
  • If you plan to arrive by train, then purchasing a Swiss Travel Pass (details on website above) could save you some money on this course, as you get half fare on the cable cars in many resorts, as well as on the trains and buses. If you purchase a Swiss card the journey from the airport to Brig and back will be included.
  • Alternatively hire a car at any nearby airport (2-4 hours driving time).

For flights and other travel options, including train, coach and driving, visit our Travel Planning page.

Fitness and Experience

To enjoy this trip you should be comfortable operating at Fitness Level 3, and  Ski Tech Level 3:

Fitness Level 3 You do 3-4 hours cv training/sport per week . At this level you are happy doing a 5-6 hr hillwalk, 40-50ml cycle or 3-4hr mountain bike ride without being totally exhausted. If you are into challenges – then the thought of doing a road sportive, or training to do a 1/2 (or maybe even a full) marathon, wouldn’t seem too ridiculous. On foot: you should be able to do the full Langdale Horseshoe: Langdale – Pike of Stickle – Angle Tarn – Bow Fell – Crinkle Crags – Pike of Blisco – Langdale in a day without finishing up exhausted. On skis : you can skin uphill at 300-400m/hr for 3-4 hrs a day (ie 8-1200m of ascent each day). Tech Level 3 Confirmed Off Piste Skier . You can put down a reasonable set of tracks in powder, but difficult snow types – eg heavy wet snow, crusts, poor visibility or 40dg slopes – can all cause problems (though you can cope with them safely, if not elegantly!) *Equivalent to Ski Club of GB Off Piste Level: Purple – Advanced* Likely to say : ‘I’d like to handle difficult snow/steep slopes more confidently in better style’ Our Advice : Off piste coaching still useful. Intermediate off piste weeks are at your level too. If you want to get into ski touring, try a touring course or intro level ski tour. If you’re an established ski mountaineer, then intermediate level tours are generally suitable.

We begin our tour in Binntal, a small valley near the remains of the Rhône Glacier. This area still remains hidden from the rest of Switzerland, giving it a wonderfully remote feel. A tunnel was built in 1965 to connect the lost valley to the town of Fiesch and civilisation.

A 16th century stone bridge leads into the village with cobblestone lanes, timber houses and traditional farms. In the centre of Binn there is the Hotel Offenhorn and small chapel.  

The village burned to the ground in the 15th century and was rebuilt with the addition of the chapel and has remained  unchanged ever since. Binntal residents still retain a traditional way of life set in a region of exquisite natural beauty.

Day Itinerary

Travel to Andermatt and meet up with your guides in Hotel 3 KÖNIGE & POST . Stay overnight in Andermatt, a traditional Swiss-Alpine town with a wide range of facilities. It now boasts a huge five-star hotel and lots of great apres-ski bars. Despite this, the town retains its Swiss character and allows easy access to the Gemstock lift system.

We start with an off-piste, warm up day around Andermatt. Using the excellent Gemstock lift there are numerous options for uphill and downhill warm up adventures. From the summit lift we can access the Felsental and Guspis valleys by a short skin thus getting us away from the crowds. Any kit issues can be dealt with easily in Andermatt at the end of the day. There are numerous ski stores specialising in ski touring equipment.

We travel by train, through the Furka tunnel, to Fiesch (journey time about 1 hour) and take a taxi for the short ride to the 'lost village' of Binn. The tour actually starts a couple of miles up the road in Fald but the road can be closed if there is still snow lying. From Fald we ascend the old smugglers' trail following the river for 1.5 hours. The route then takes us steeply up towards Mittlenberg (2506m). The traditional Mittlenberghutte (2395m) is nestled below this and affords great views of the Northern Valais (4 hours in total from Feld).

We start early for the ascent of our first peak, the dramatic Offenhorn (3236m). This is a remote peak and together with the Blinnenhorn (3373m) is one of the higher peaks in the region. From the summit we descend back over the Passo Del Sabbione and the skin up to the Mettleberg Pass. If time allows you can ascend Punta Sabbione (3182m) just above the pass. Your now in Italy and the descent down Hohsandgletscher is breathtaking. After a short climb we reach the Rifugio Claudio e Bruno (2708m) for a welcome rest and some delicious Italian food and wine! It also has the benefit of hot running water and showers.

Today we ascend the main summit of the tour, the Blinnenhorn (3374m). A hour of steep kick turns behind the hut eventually allows us to reach the large flat area of Gran Sella del Gries (3112m). We then head west up the Griesgletscher until the slope steepens and crampons might be needed. It will take about 5 hours in total but affords stunning view across to the Finsteraarhorn, the highest peak in the Bernese Oberland. We enjoy a superb and long descent via a coffee at the Cabane del Corno Gries, finally ending in the small, remote village of All’Acqua (1600m). An hours skin up a steep wooded track reaches the very beautiful Swiss Rifugio Piansecco (1964m)

Another early start from the Rifugio Piansecco for the ascent of Passo Rotondo (2,754m). It’s a long 5 hour ascent which includes one short but steep section where, depending on the snow we may use crampons. From the summit we traverse the northern slopes before climbing to the spectacular Witenwasserenpass (2816m). we get a  and great descent down the Witenwasseren glacier to the Rotondo Hut (2570m). If time (and strength) permits the ascent of the Witenwasserenstock is also worth the effort.

We start our final day with an ascent of the classic Piz Lucendro 2962m. A 3 hour skin lands us on the Giaccio de Lucendro where we may need to use crampons for the final 150m ascent to the giant summit cross. From the summit we can trace our route all the way from the summit of the Offenhorn on the first day to the long glacier descending from the Blinnenhorn and our route from the previous day. With good visibility we can even see across to Mont Blanc in the far distance. Then it’s back on with the skis for the wonderful final descent down the West face and Witenwasseren to Realp. We then board a train for the short journey back to Andermatt and our last night’s celebrations!

tour de soleil skitour

This is an extensive list of the recommended clothing and equipment you will need if you are coming to one of our Ski Tours.

During the tour you will be staying most nights in catered high mountain huts and will need to carry all the equipment and clothing you require for the duration of the tour. The huts are comfortable but basic with limited facilities. 

Any clothing or other items not required on the tour can be left in a travel bag at your first hotel ready for your return on the final night.

We recommend keeping the weight of your pack as light as possible. If you are new to alpine multi-day ski touring, try taking your pack out on the slopes before the tour to see how it feels. You quickly realise the benefit of ‘skiing light’.

If you are uncertain or need further information, don't hesitate to contact us.

When choosing clothing for ski touring you want to think light, warm and versatile. During the trip weather conditions will change and you’re likely to go from warm afternoons where you’ll be carrying most of your gear in your rucksack, to icy-cold mornings when you’re wearing everything to keep warm! Getting hold of the best and lightest kit available is always worth it and most of the major brands will be able to supply a suitable kit.

This season, we’ve partnered with Ortovox to provide us with the very best safety kit and clothing. Our guides will all be decked out in the latest Ortovox jackets and trousers and will keep warm, dry and comfortable thanks to their technical wool base- and mid-layers. Our guides couldn’t recommend their kit more highly.

  • Roll neck rather than a scarf. We use and recommend the ‘Buff¹ ¬ a light, stretchable tube. Excellent despite the name! They do both a fleece/cotton version for warmth or just a cotton one (to keep the sun off).
  • Headwear to include warm hat and sun-cap or wide-brim hat for extra protection from the sun. Mountain Tracks fully supports the wearing of helmets for skiing, although not mandatory for any of our trips we do recommend them.
  • An outer shell jacket made of waterproof and breathable material like Gore-Tex or similar with a built-in hood. The lighter the better and so a shell is recommended rather than an insulated jacket.
  • 1-2 thin fleeces - rather than a thick layer between your skin and the outer shell - an approach which gives better heat retention and good flexibility. These tops are known as ‘mid layers’. The principle of ‘layering’ e.g. allowing you to easily add/remove layers depending on the temperature and the activity is recommended to ensure comfort on the mountain.
  • Insulation layer like a down or Primaloft jacket is a good item to have ready to wear in the event of cold weather, it can live in your rucksack as a spare layer and can come in very handy for sudden changes in the weather.
  • For the lower half it’s essential that you have a pair of thermal base layer pants (long johns).
  • These can then be combined with either:
  • (a) a good pair of ‘technical shell’ pants in a waterproof and breathable fabric like Gore-Tex (b) a pair of mountain or alpine pants in a softshell material together with a pair of lightweight, breathable over trousers with long side zips.
  • Top and bottom underwear made of a synthetic, wicking material. Very popular at the moment are the wool based layers from companies such as Ortovox . They are comfy, breathable and warm when needed and can be worn for days without your friends catching a whiff!
  • Good quality Gore-Tex gloves or mitts and a thin pair of softshell or fleece gloves for when it is hot and for ski touring in. Silk inner gloves can be useful if the weather is cold and you suffer from cold hands.
  • Technical Socks - Investing in good quality ski socks will improve fit, warmth and feel when skiing for long periods. Bring along a few pairs.

For all touring trips it is essential you ski with an all-mountain/freeride type skis, ski touring boots and ski touring bindings. If you have your own skis but they do not have ski touring bindings then you will need to rent skis. The same applies if you have downhill ski boots, you will need to rent ski touring boots. Skis

This winter our lead guides are using Elan skis . Praised by magazine testers and professional skiers alike for its unique blend of lightweight performance, the Ripstick 96 is proven to be the ultimate freeride ski in all snow conditions. The Ripstick 106 is the ultimate freeride ski for any terrain. From boundary line to the base lodge, peak to the parking lot, and trailhead to tailgate this ski excels in all conditions. The new Ripstick Tour 94 is designed on a wider platform, enabling the skier to float better, ski faster, and turn easier in backcountry conditions.

It is built to blend high performance at a low weight, for the perfect mix of freeride downhill performance and efficient ascending capability. With Ripstick Tour 94, the confidence to conquer long ascents and charge challenging descents is the name of the game.

There are many ‘all-mountain/freeride’ skis to choose from and we also recommend skis from Salomon, Dynastar, Movement, Black Crows, Trab Skis, Scott and Volkl.  Look for a ski that is the right size for your height, typically the tip of the ski should be somewhere around your nose height.  As for the width of the ski or “side cut” a mid-fat ski – 90-110mm under the foot is a good place to start; this offers plenty of flotation off-piste while remaining suitable for day tours and they should also handle reasonably well on piste and mixed terrain.

Elan Skis: www.elanskis.com

There are plenty of other great skis to choose from so if you’re planning on buying skis for ski touring or general skiing and have any questions do not hesitate to call us, or Lockwoods, to discuss the options available.

If you are planning on buying skis for ski touring and general skiing and have any questions do not hesitate to call us to discuss the options available to you. Boots

It is essential that you have ski touring boots for these trips as walking uphill is much more comfortable in these types of boots with a walk mode and great flex; a dedicated touring boot or a hybrid hike & ride boot is best. 

Our guides are using ROXA boots. They recommend R3 ski boots , the lightest high-performance alpine ski boot in its class. The 110 TI is geared for big mountain chargers who may use “Tech” and/or Alpine bindings and often hike or skin to find their lines . The RX Tours is targeted toward skiers who prefer to blaze their own trail and leave the lift lines behind.

Scarpa has led the way in touring boots for many years but they have been joined by other manufacturers like Dynafit, Salomon, Scott, Black Diamond, Dalbello and K2; all producing their own versions of ski touring boot.

• Scarpa’s Freedom boots are their Hybrid offerings, with great ski performance, a walk mode and Vibram sole. Their Maestrale (men’s) and Gea (women’s) boots are also highly recommended. • The Scott Celeste and Cosmo boots have stood the test of time and are good all-around choices. • Salomon’s Quest Max series offer boots with a walk mode in various flex’s with good downhill performance. • Dynafit offer the Mercury or Vulcan boots plus a range of lightweight options like the TLT6. The best of the rest are: Fischer - Transalp Black Diamond – Quadrant and Factor K2 – Pinnacle boot Dalbello – Lupo or Sherpa Langue – XT series offer a ski boot with a walk mode in various flex options Boot Liners These days many manufacturers offer ‘thermo-fit¹ liners as standard equipment. You may also want to consider a custom liner as these are heated and molded to your foot and boot for a perfect fit. They can make all the difference especially if you have trouble finding really comfortable ‘off-the-shelf’ boots. Zipfit liners are a great option for anyone seeking total customisation in fit and comfort. They will replace the original liner. Custom Footbeds Essential kit – to provide additional comfort and ski control. If you want to get footbeds made or a pair of new boots fitted then we suggest you visit somewhere like Profeet for a professional fitting. Don’t forget if you have footbeds in your downhill boots but need to rent touring boots then you can bring the footbeds with you and put them in the hire boots. Bindings For all ski touring trips ski touring bindings are essential. Fritschi and Marker both make excellent ski-touring bindings and you have a few different options to choose from. Many more people are seeing the advantage of the “pin” binding system now offered by a number of manufacturers as these are light and offer ever-improving security despite their minimalist looks!

It’s essential you have ski touring bindings on your skis. Although Pin bindings have been around since the Dynafit Low Tech bindings over 30 years ago since their patent expired the technology has advanced substantially. Salomon, with their Shift Binding, are at the forefront; they’re ‘multi norm compatible’ so fit a selection of boots and are lighter than most freeride bindings. Our lead guides are using the Shift binding this winter, so if you’d like to know more about them give Lockwoods a ring. Ski Poles We recommend telescopic poles. They must have wide powder baskets (4-5 inches/100-120mm diameter) otherwise you’ll be up to your armpits on the ascents. Go for an alloy rather than carbon poles which are lighter but have a nasty habit of snapping near the basket due to ski edge nicks. Rucksack For most ski tours especially multi-day hut-to-hut tours you will need a 35 - 40 litre rucksack . You might get away with a big 30 liter pack if you are an experienced ski tourer and know what to pack. Most people will find a 35-40 liter pack is a good size for touring. Key features of a good ski touring pack:

  • a method of attaching your skis in either an A-frame (one either side) or both together on a diagonal ski carriage
  • easy access into the main compartment without having to empty the sack to get something at the bottom
  • separate pocket for avalanche shovel, handle and probe
  • small top pocket for items like wallet, sunglassed/goggles etc; an ice axe loop
  • built-in rain cover and a secure method of attaching/stowing a ski helmet 
  • good hip/waist belt and adjustable shoulder straps

Ortovox Haute Route 40 rucksack will be a good choice for ski touring trips. 

Avalanche airbag rucksacks can be used for touring but they are heavy, adding somewhere between 5-8kg just for an empty pack plus canister. So unless you are sure you can carry it and fit all you need in, we do not recommend you use one. 

Over a long multiday tour, every gram of weight is important as you have to carry and move it yourself. Carrying a heavy pack will hinder and tire all but the most experienced and fit ski tourer.

  • Ski Skins – these are skins which, now made of artificial fabric, stick to the bottom of your skis and allow you to walk up hill. They must be cut to fit your skis exactly, so if you are bringing your own skis you must provide your own skins.
  • Ski Crampons (aka couteaux) - most ski touring bindings have ski crampons specifically designed for the binding. We always carry these just in case. Again if you are bringing your skis and touring bindings you must provide your own ski crampons. 
  • Ice Axe - general lightweight mountaineering / alpine pick. Ideally this needs to be short enough to fit in your pack.
  • Boot Crampons - ideally lightweight aluminum ones although steel crampons are required for more demanding tours
  • Climbing Harness - a simple lightweight harness. The key feature is that it should have fully adjustable leg loops for putting on over ski boots, crampons, etc.
  • Helmet - Some people choose to ski tour with a helmet, this is up to you. If you bring a Normal ski helmet they are heavy to carry. Many manufacturers now have lightweight ski touring helmets that work well.

The “Safety Trilogy” - required on all our ski tours and off-piste courses.

  • Avalanche Transceiver/Beacon
  • Snow shovel
  • Avalanche probe

We recommend Simple and intuitive ORTOVOX AVALANCHE RESCUE KIT 3+ 

Remember it is not enough just to carry this equipment; you have to know how to use it. 

How about joining one of our specialist avalanche courses – check out  www.mountaintracks.co.uk/activity/avalanche-training

  • Good pair of ski goggles with a lens for low light is essential in the event of snow and poor visibility
  • Good quality sunglasses with 100% UV protection
  • 35 – 40 liter rucksack
  • 1 – 1.5 Liter water bottle – we don’t recommend hydration systems (e.g. camelbak) in winter as they can freeze.
  • Food – bring some of your favorite hill nibbles (chocolate, energy bars)*
  • Suncream and lip salve
  • Camera with a large capacity memory card!
  • Money – most hotels, shops and restaurants accept credit cards, but not all the alpine huts do. You should allow about 30-40 Swiss Francs or 20-30 Euros per day for lunch and drinks (amount approximate and depends on consumption)
  • Lightweight sleeping bag liner – now compulsory in most huts.
  • Wash kit with small personal first aid items – should include:
  • Toothbrush and paste - a mini one is ideal
  • Anti-bacterial hand cleaner
  • Wet wipes – essential to try to maintain hygiene
  • Tissues and toilet roll
  • Plasters – of various sizes and possibly some adhesive wound dressings.
  • Pain Killers – aspirin or Paracetamol/Nurofen
  • Antiseptic cream or wipes
  • Blister kit – compeed and elastic tape to hold it in place (essential)!
  • (Note: Guides will have comprehensive first aid kits and are qualified in mountain first aid)
  • Small light quick dry towel e.g. a Lifeventure Soft fiber towel
  • Most huts have limited washing facilities
  • Earplugs – it can get quite noisy!
  • Headtorch - lightweight and carry spare batteries.
  • Book, pack of cards and or Ipod/MP3 player – It’s nice to have something to read or listen to when you are in the huts or to challenge your fellow travelers to a game of card. These items are not essential but if you have space you might appreciate them.

Food and Water We suggest you bring with you or buy in resort snack food that you can take out on the hill with you each day. Things like cereal bars, dried fruit and nuts, chocolate, sugary sweets or your favorite hill snacks. When you’re staying overnight in huts its best to take supplies for the days you are away. Huts do sell food but it’s expensive and sometimes stocks run low. If you have any food allergies or dietary requirements especially if you are a Coeliac (Gluten free) or have a dairy allergy we strongly recommend you bring some food with you that you can supplement your dinners with. The huts are fairly good at providing for vegetarians but less so for other dietary needs. You have to buy bottled water in the huts as usually any running water is non-potable. Bottled water is expensive in French and Swiss huts; you can be paying upto 12-16CHF per 1.5L bottle of water. So please ensure you budget for this cost.

  • Ski Touring - Hiring Most resorts have ski shops that hire ski equipment and we try to provide relevant contact details for all our courses and tours. Prices do change by resort/country, but here’s an approximate guide to hire costs for 6-days hire: Touring Skis plus skins and ski crampons €150-180 Touring boots €80-90  Boot Crampons €45-50 Ice Axe €30-40 Harness €20-30 Helmet €20-30 Transceiver/shovel/probe €75-80 Our guides also generally have additional sets of safety equipment (transceiver/shovel/probe) which they hire out to clients for €65 for 6 days hire. Must be booked in advance.

Skiers enjoying Andermatt's picturesque town centre

Andermatt is a charming 800 year old Swiss village in the Gotthard Massif and one of our favourite winter destinations! 

It is renowned for its excellent snow record thanks to its geographical location.  It is also renowned for its superb off-piste and the main mountain, the Gemstock has been likened to the Grand Montets in Argentiere, but with the distinct advantage that theoff-piste here in Andermatt is rarely crowded. From the top of the Gemstock you are almost at 3000m and you have a spectacular panoramic view of more than 600 summits. 

Off the mountain, the village is quiet with limited apres-ski and nightlife. But it's the skiing you've come for and you won't be disappointed!!

Our top reasons for visiting Andermatt

  • Untracked powder days after snowfall
  • Solitude despite almost unlimited off-piste possibilities
  • Cosy and rustic hotels in the picturesque village
  • Excellent  snow record

ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) 

What is ETIAS?

  • Starting in the first half of 2025, travellers from over 60 visa-exempt countries will be required to have an ETIAS travel authorisation to enter most European countries within the Schengen Area .
  • ETIAS enhances security by checking the details of travellers before they arrive.
  • It is similar to systems like the ESTA (USA) and eTA (Canada).

Who Needs ETIAS?

  • Travellers with British passports or passports from other visa-exempt countries must complete the ETIAS process.
  • Holders of EU or Schengen Area passports or valid EU/Schengen Area visas are exempt.

Application Details:

  • ETIAS costs a 7EUR processing fee, waived for those under 18 or over 70.
  • Validity: Three years from application, tied to your passport’s validity.
  • New passport = new ETIAS.

Application Form Questions:

  • Basic personal details (e.g., passport info, name, address, citizenship, gender).
  • Additional questions during the process (e.g., criminal history, past travel, health).

Application Fee:

  • 7EUR euros.

EES (Entry/Exit System)

The Entry/Exit System (EES) is an automated IT system developed by the European Agency for the operational management of large-scale IT systems. Its primary purpose is to register travellers from third countries each time they cross an EU external border. Here are the key points:

What is EES?

  • The EES is an automated IT system designed for registering non-EU nationals travelling for a short stay.
  • It records and stores the date, time, and place of entry and exit when these travellers cross the external borders of European countries using the EES.
  • The system calculates the duration of the authorized stay and generates alerts to EU Member States when the authorized stay expires .

Who Is Affected?

  • The EES applies to non-EU nationals travelling for a short stay (up to 90 days within any 180 days) to European countries using the EES.
  • Exemptions apply; for example, holders of EU or Schengen Area passports or valid visas are exempt from EES registration.

Advantages of EES:

  • Saves time by replacing manual passport stamping.
  • Automates border control procedures for more efficient travel.
  • It helps identify travellers who overstay or use fake identities or passports.
  • Contributes to preventing, detecting, and investigating serious criminal offences.
  • EES Official Website

All our ski tours are led by our team of IFMGA Mountain Guides. The team is led by Olly Allen, Matt Dickinson and Nick Parks. 

  • Accommodation Information You will stay 3 nights in one of Andermatt’s many hotels on a B&B basis (twin rooms). Four nights will be spent in high alpine huts. Accommodation in the huts is in dormitories. Breakfast and evening meals are provided and food is plentiful and nutritious.

Skills & Stamina

Skill level.

Off-Piste Coaching 

Our Introductory level is suitable for people who can ski red and black pistes in resorts without problems and you can deal with moguls and some ice. You will be new to off-piste skiing or maybe have dabbled a little on the sides of the piste or even attended a previous off-piste specific course. You would like to ski powder snow with confidence and learn to link turns off-piste in a variety of terrain as well as being able to control your speed and adjust your turn radius.

Ski Touring

Introductory level ski touring trips are appropriate for people looking for their first touring experience. The pace is relaxed and typically we skin for 2-4hrs per day so ascents are about 500 - 800m vertical. You need to be a reasonable off-piste skier (at our Off-Piste Development level), able to link controlled parallel turns in powder snow and ski through trees in control. You need to be prepared to hike short sections on foot carrying your skis on your rucksack (though you won’t need any specific mountaineering knowledge, so crampons and an ice axe are usually not required).

Off-Piste Coaching and Adventure  For our Intermediate graded off-piste ski courses and trips you will have at least a couple of weeks off-piste skiing experience and /or received some previous instructions on an off-piste specific course. You can link 10-12 turns together in reasonable control, speed and style, following the fall line in most conditions. If you’re looking to improve your technique in deeper snow and steeper slopes then our Off-Piste Coaching Development trips are for you. These are instructor-led courses.

If you want to get some miles under your skis then look at our Off-Piste Adventure Intermediate trips which are led by our team of Mountain Guides. On the Adventure courses you can expect to hike or ski tour short distances to get to better snow and terrain, although no  previous ski touring experience is required.

These tours will involve around 3-5hrs of skinning per day, achieving around 800 – 1000m of vertical ascent. We would expect you to be able skin to a pace of 300m of vertical ascent per hour. You need to be able to execute good uphill kick turns on steeper slopes and have some familiarity with use of crampons and ice axe. You need to be a reasonably strong off-piste skier able to deal with a variety of snow conditions (powder, crust, slush) and able to ski on steeper and narrower slopes with the requisite ability and confidence for exposed sections.

For our Advanced Off-Piste Coaching courses you should be an excellent piste skier and have many years experience of skiing off-piste. You should be able to ski off-piste in most conditions linking controlled parallel turns, ski bumpy terrain, trees, narrow gullies and enjoy pushing yourself to achieve new things. Your skiing should be reasonably fluid and autonomous i.e. you can already adapt your turn radius and speed to the terrain and snow conditions off-piste. This course will focus on the technical and tactical skills to ski steep terrain, jump turns and line choice as well as refreshing your avalanche skills and mountain safety. The mission is for your skiing to become more dynamic and reactive!

You are an experienced and confident off-piste skier able to handle most snow types and conditions, you can ski steep slopes (30 degrees+) and make short turns in gullies and ski through trees. These skills have been learned over a number of years of skiing off-piste with mountain guides or experienced groups of friends. You are happy to ski tour to access descents and better snow, so you will have previously used ski touring equipment and can do effective and safe uphill kick turns. You aspire to ski the best snow available and are happy to push yourself to reach the best snow and terrain.

Advanced-level tours are for experienced ski tourers who’ve previously completed another hut-to-hut trip or multiple day tours. A large proportion of the terrain may be steep and exposed; thus confidence in your uphill kick turns on 35+ degree slopes is a must, as is your ability to ski slopes of 40 degrees. You will be a strong, fluid off-piste skier able to handle all conditions. You will be confident of using crampons and an ice axe and happy scrambling/climbing on snow and rock on short climbs to summits, and in gullies to gain a col.

You can ski fluidly and autonomously on all terrain. You often ski couloirs and gullies and seek out steep slopes and you can jump turn in narrow couloirs and have experience of abseiling and sideslipping on steep terrain. You can ski fast with fluid ‘freeride’ style turns and can jump off small rocks and ski trees with no fear or problems. You are happy to ski tour and hike to reach the best snow and terrain and you should have some basic knowledge of using crampons and ice axe. Your aims are to push your skills and challenge yourself further.

Expert level ski tours are pure ski mountaineering journeys in the high mountains. You must be confident skiing steep exposed terrain and ski touring for at least 5 hours per day with long ascents. You will be expected to climb on your feet carrying your skis on your pack to summit mountains above 4000m in altitude. You must be completely confident with your crampon placement and use of an ice axe and you will have some basic rope skills and be happy walking along exposed ridges on mixed terrain to gain the summits of peaks.

Stamina Level

  • Level 1 You are fit enough to ski all day with only short stops for food and drink. You can ski off-piste all day without being too tired at the end of the day; you can ski in this way for multiple days on your holiday. You can also hike or ski tour for around 2 hours per day. You’re used to doing cardiovascular exercise 3 to 4 times a week (bike, run, gym) to maintain your fitness, and you’re able to push yourself if needed for short periods of time at a higher rate than usual.

You can ski all day comfortably off-piste with only short stops for food and drink, you can do this for multiple days on your holiday. If necessary you can ski tour for around 1-2 hrs up hill plus your happy to do a few short hikes to access good snow with your skis on your shoulder or rucksack. Your stamina and endurance fitness is good and you work hard to maintain a good level of fitness. You will be exercising 3-4 times a week and also at the weekend; thus running a half marathon, doing a 50 mile cycle ride, 3-4 hours on a mountain bike or a full day’s hill walk would all prove possible with this stamina level.

You can ski all day comfortably and will be expected to ascend on skis at around 400m/hr and be able to skin for at least 5hrs with up to 1000m to 1300m of ascent per day. Your stamina and endurance fitness is good and you work hard to maintain a good level of fitness. You will be exercising 3-4 times a week and also at the weekend; thus running a half marathon, doing a 50 mile cycle ride, 3-4 hours on a mountain bike or a full day’s hill walk would all prove possible with this stamina level.

Tour du Soleil

Sonnenverwöhnte skiroute von andermatt ins saas-tal.

Die klassische Tour du Soleil führt von Realp bei Andermatt im Kanton Uri über das Tessin bis ins Saas-Tal im Wallis. Aufgrund der großen Streckenlänge wird oftmals eine verkürzte Variante der Tour du Soleil begangen, die auf ungefähr halber Strecke der Originalroute im Binntal endet.

Wer die klassische Route der Tour du Soleil wählt, wird eine zum Ende hin einsame und sehr abwechslungsreiche Route erleben. Zum einen steigt man oft von hochwinterlichen Gipfeln ins frühlingshafte Tal hinab, zum anderen wechseln sich bewartete Hütten mit spartanischen Winterräumen ab.

Ski-Tour du Soleil

Wie der Name, Tour du Soleil, bereits erahnen lässt, finden diese Tage in der Sonnenstube der Schweiz statt. Unsere Tour starten wir zuoberst im Bedrettotal, und streifen anschliessend einige Täler, die im Winter sehr einsam sind. So das obere Bedrettotal, das italienische Formazzatal wie zum Schluss das Binntal. Weitere Merkmale dieser Tour sind die guten Hütten, die schöne Fernsicht und mit dem Blinnenhorn, Hohsandhorn, Ofenhorn und Holzerspitz sehr attraktive Gipfel.

1. Tag  Anreise nach All’Acqua

Individuelle Anreise nach Airolo. Treffpunkt 15:30 Uhr Bahnhofbuffet. Mit dem Taxi geht’s weiter nach All`Acqua. Hier übernachten wir im Doppelzimmer im gemütlichen Ristorante all`Acqua. Es bleibt Zeit um gemeinsam die nächsten Tage zu besprechen.

2. Tag  Capanna Corno Griess

Eckdaten: 7km, 4h, ⇑ 800hm. Marschzeiten sind ohne Pausen gerechnet.

Ein idealer Tag um die Tour Soleil gemütlich zu starten. So haben wir Zeit uns zu akklimatisieren und eine kurze Ausbildung in der Lawinenrettung durchzuführen.

3. Tag  Blinnenhorn 3374m – Rifugio Claudio e Bruno

Eckdaten: 13km, 6h, ⇑ 1200hm, ⇓ 400

Wunderschöne Gletschertour. Der mächtige Griessgletscher ist lang, sehr lang, aber entschädigt mit einer eindrücklichen Kulisse. Das Blinnenhorn ist der höchste Gipfel der Region. Es ist ein aussergewöhnlich schöner Aussichtspunkt mit einem grossartigen Panorama. Über weite und offene Südhänge schwingen wir in bestem Sulz zum Rifugio Claudio e Bruno. Hier lernen wir die italienische Gastfreundschaft kennen, essen gute Pasta und trinken ein feines Glas Rotwein.

4. Tag  Hohsandhorn 3182m, Ofenhorn 3236m – Mittlenberghütte

Eckdaten: 12km, 6h, ⇑ 900hm, ⇓ 1200hm

Heute erwartet uns ein stetiges Auf und Ab. Es ist technisch und konditionell die anspruchsvollste Tour dieser Tage. Doch die einsame und wilde Landschaft lässt Müh und Not vergessen! Das Hohsandhorn und Ofenhorn sind traumhafte Skiberge mit rassigen Abfahrten. Den Abend geniessen wir in der Mittlenberghütte. Sie ist eine wahre Oase im Binntal. Pia, die herzliche Hüttenwartin sorgt für unser Wohl.

5. Tag  Holzerspitz 2656m – Binn

Eckdaten: 12km, 5h, ⇑ 500hm, ⇓ 1400hm

Diese Tour zeichnet sich vor allem durch die lange und schöne Abfahrt aus. Direkt hinter der Hütte geht’s los. Es sind nur 500hm zu bewältigen. Der Blick auf dem Gipfel Richtung Rhonetal ist einmalig. Da wir Zeit haben, warten wir bis der Schnee perfekt aufgeweicht ist und geniessen dann die tollen Hänge bis nach Fäld hinunter.  Ab Fäld geht’s dann mit den ÖV wieder nach Hause.

In Erinnerung bleibt eine wahre Traumtour! Für mich gehört sie zu den schönsten Haute Routen überhaupt!

Skidurchquerung: tour de soleil (ch).

Mario Kempf 2022-03-24T20:38:25+01:00 März 22nd, 2022 |

Skidurchquerungen sind etwas ganze Besonderes im Leben passionierter SkitourengeherInnen. Eine ganze spannende, durchaus etablierte, aber über die Grenzen hinaus nicht sehr bekannte ist die hier vorgestellte „Tour de Soleil“.

Dem Mythos auf der Spur: Die Haute Route!

Mario Kempf 2021-02-10T11:27:22+01:00 Februar 9th, 2021 |

Die meisten SkitourengeherInnen träumen davon, sie irgendwann im Leben zu machen. Ich durfte sie in diesem grandiosen Winter führen: Die Schweizer Haute Route! Wie es uns dabei gegangen ist lest ihr hier. 

Patagonien im Winter erleben

Mario Kempf 2020-01-08T22:07:02+01:00 Januar 8th, 2020 |

Heute einmal etwas ganz anderes aus der Rubrik "Weltweite Bergfahrten" von Gastautor Bendix Holtgraefe. Gute Unterhaltung beim Schmökern eines Abenteuers der ganz besonderen Art. 

Auf Skihochtour im Berner Oberland

Mario Kempf 2019-05-10T22:48:19+01:00 Mai 9th, 2019 |

Oh du schöne Schweiz... Zum Auftakt der Skihochtourensaison geht's mit dem Alpenverein ins Berner Oberland. In der beeindruckenden Gletscherwelt ziehen wir unsere Spuren von Nord nach West nach Ost nach Süd. Wenn alles glatt geht, dann statten wir auch dem eindrücklichsten Berge der Region einen Besuch ab: Dem Finsteraarhorn!

Winter im Langtauferer Tal

Mario Kempf 2019-04-12T12:35:01+01:00 Februar 13th, 2019 |

Ein Sommerurlaub im Südtiroler  Langtauferer Tal wird jedem sicherlich lange in Erinnerung bleiben. Abseits des Trubels rund um den Reschensee kann man hier perfekt entschleunigen, wandern und in Ruhe die wunderbare Bergwelt genießen. Ganz besonders gut lässt sich das im "Bergrefugium"  Langtaufererhof machen, wo wir einige Tage zu Gast waren...

Anzeige: ALPIN – Das Berg Magazin: Silvretta Skitouren Special

Die deutschsprachige Zeitschrift ALPIN kennen wohl die meisten. In der 2018er Märzausgabe gibt es u.a. ein Special zum Thema Skitouren-Eldorado Silvretta . Quasi unserem Hochalpin-Spielplatz vor der Haustüre. Grund genug für uns, einen ausführlichen Blick in das Special zu werfen!

„Tour du Ciel“ Skidurchquerung

Mario Kempf 2021-02-10T11:06:38+01:00 April 21st, 2017 |

Einige Zeit stand sie bereits auf der ToDo-Liste, dieses Frühjahr war es nun soweit: Die „ Tour du Ciel “ im Schweizer Wallis – eine winterliche Mehrtagestour der Sonderklasse! Vom Startpunkt Zermatt ziehen die Etappen dabei parallel zum Mattertal und bewegen sich durchwegs auf über 2.500m Seehöhe. Die Hütten liegen zwischen 2.500-3.000m, der höchste Punkt der Tour – das Bishorn – liegt immerhin auf 4.153m.

Aletschhorn

Mario Kempf 2022-06-01T06:56:56+01:00 März 30th, 2017 |

Die Skihochtourensaison ist eröffnet :-) Und wenn, dann gleich ordentlich - oder, wie die Vorarlberger sagen - "g'hörig". In einer Spontanaktion ging's mit Christian aus dem Raum München Samstagmorgen via Autoverlad Furka nach Fiesch . Geparkt wird am großen Parkplatz der Seilbahn und mit der Gondel geht's komfortabel hoch zum Eggishorn , wo sich uns die grandiose Aletsch-Gletscherwelt eröffnet. Wow. Wahnsinn. Wie geil...

Piz Beverin

Mario Kempf 2021-02-10T11:09:45+01:00 März 27th, 2017 |

Der Naturpark Beverin - ein für mich bis dato unbeschriebenes Blatt. Und das, obwohl er quasi ums Eck (100km ab Götzis) liegt und einige stattliche 3.000er im Angebot hat. Dem Namensgeber des Parks - Piz Beverin - fehlen zwar ganze 2 Meter für diese Liga, dafür bietet er eine perfekte Rundumsicht über den Naturpark.

Bergell + Fornohütte = Genial

Mario Kempf 2021-02-10T11:09:51+01:00 März 15th, 2017 |

Mein letzter Besuch der Fornohütte liegt schon viel zu lange zurück und so wurde es höchste Zeit für einen neuerlichen Besuch dieses genial gelegenen Rifugio im Bergell. Von Vorarlberg geht's via Julierpass (aktuell top Bedingungen!) und Silvaplana nach Maloja , wo kurz nach dem Ortsende auf der linken Seite ein schmaler Weg zum Parkplatz beim Stausee führt.

Schnee-Update Rheintal & Bregenzerwald

Mario Kempf 2017-07-23T15:36:56+01:00 März 9th, 2017 |

Momentan ist es etwas still auf meinem Blog. Der Grund ist weder eine Verletzung, noch Krankheit, noch Bewegungsfaulheit - sondern, dass ich momentan außerhalb vom Büro wenig Zeit vorm Computer verbringe. Grundsätzlich ein gutes Zeichen, denn das heißt gleichzeitig, dass ich viel draußen bin. Gut für mich, weniger gut für euch, treue Leser - mea culpa!

Kleine Verwallrunde

Mario Kempf 2021-02-10T11:12:58+01:00 Februar 16th, 2017 |

Skitourengeher, die sich ihr Material nicht komplett zerstören wollen, haben es diese Saison nicht leicht. Glücklicherweise gibt es eine Gegend, wo sich verhältnismäßig viel Schnee finden lässt - und dieses hört auf den schönen Namen "Verwall". Wer mit diesem Begriff nicht viel anfangen kann ist leicht zu helfen.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .

France-Luxembourg: "Cet espèce de truc un peu magique", Riolo valide l'attitude des Bleus

tour de soleil skitour

A l'image de leur capitaine Kylian Mbappé , certains joueurs de l'équipe de France ont semblé comme libérés d'un poids et ont montré un beau visage ce mercredi lors du succès des Bleus contre le Luxembourg (3-0) en marge de l'Euro 2024. Avant le tournoi disputé en Allemagne du 14 juin au 14 juillet, Daniel Riolo a aimé l'implication des protégés de Didier Deschamps pour ce match de préparation.

"Comme on va répéter toute la soirée que l’adversaire est faible, que l’on ne peut pas tirer d’enseignements… Et effectivement, tout au long de la soirée dès que tu vois quelque chose dans le match tu es bien obligé de te dire 'oui mais c’est contre'. Alors tu ne peux t’intéresser qu’aux attitudes", a analysé l'éditorialiste de l'After Foot sur RMC. "Est-ce que déjà, tu as la bonne attitude? C’est comme dans n’importe quelle compétition et à n’importe quel niveau, quand tu joues contre quelqu’un d’objectivement moins fort, est-ce que tu as la bonne attitude? Oui les Bleus ont eu une bonne attitude ce mercredi soir."

>> Revivez France-Luxembourg (3-0)

L'intégrale de l'After Foot du mercredi 5 juin 2024

Des joueurs qui ont retrouvé le sourire

Impliqués et motivés, les joueurs de l'équipe de France ont validé leur courte et intense préparation à Clairefontaine par une victoire relativement facile contre le Luxembourg . Surtout, le groupe tricolore a confirmé qu'il vivait bien et certains ont même parus métamorphosés après avoir enfilé le maillot bleu.

"Ils n’ont pas tous été excellents mais ils ont tous voulu bien faire avec cet espèce de truc un peu magique qui, malgré tout, existe chez les Bleus. C’est qu’il y a des mecs pas bons en club et qui, quand ils enfilent ce maillot, sont meilleurs ou ont une autre tête et ont le sourire", a encore assuré Daniel Riolo. " Kolo Muani ? Je pense à Clauss aussi. Et je parle de sourire au premier degré. Un petit peu le truc du 'c’est valorisant d’être là' et du joueur qui n’est pas dans un caprice."

"Kolo Muani je ne l'ai pas reconnu"

Au bout d'une première période largement maîtrisée par l'équipe de France, Randal Kolo Muani est venu concrétiser cette domination en marquant de la tête. Son premier but depuis... mars lors du dernier rassemblement des Bleus. En difficulté au PSG où il a peiné à s'imposer cette saison, l'attaquant de 25 ans a livré un bon match en sélection.

" Kolo Muani je ne l’ai pas reconnu. Je me suis demandé si c’était lui ou si ce n’était pas lui", a encore plaisanté Daniel Riolo après la prestation convaincante du Francilien. "Même son visage, tu as l’impression que ce n’est plus le même et qu’il est épanoui. Tu n’as pas les problèmes du quotidien. C’est comme quand tu as eu du mal toute l’année et que tu pars en vacances et que tu es complètement reposé au bout d’une semaine, que tu es épanoui, que tu as pris le soleil ou que tu vas à la plage, que tu fais une soirée avec le rosé et le barbecue. Tu es forme, voilà."

  • France-Luxembourg: les Bleus lancent parfaitement leur préparation pour l'Euro, Mbappé en forme
  • France-Luxembourg: Kanté, Mbappé, Barcola… Deschamps distribue les bons points
  • France-Luxembourg: buteur après une saison compliquée au PSG, Kolo Muani loue "la confiance" de Deschamps

Et le membre de l'After Foot de conclure: "C’est les Bleus, ça fait cet effet-là. Et c’est quand même plutôt positif parce que LA grande question des prochains jours c’est de se demander si on va être au point physiquement parce qu’on n'a pas beaucoup de temps pour se retaper. Je pense à Kanté , je pense à Mbappé . Dembélé ce mercredi était en baskets donc pas apte à jouer… Il y a pas mal de mecs comme ça sur lesquels on se pose des questions. On a parlé de la charnière mais bon je ne sais pas… Avec les Bleus, tout est possible."
