Step into the high-alpine drama of Valais, where old pilgrim routes meet rugged Swiss beauty. The Tour du Saint Bernard is a 5-day loop full of spiritual history, wild trails, and cheese-fueled hut life. You'll hike from valley to valley, sleeping in places like the famous Hospice du Grand Saint Bernard, where silence and stone speak volumes.
This trek is made for hikers who want a deeper connection to the mountains. It’s not extreme, but it’s no walk in the park either. Expect long days, quiet trails, and views that make you stop mid-step. Some nights you’ll share stories over dinner, other times you'll prep your own in a hut kitchen — either way, the setting is hard to beat.
It’s the Alps stripped back to what matters: simple, soulful adventure on ancient trails. For those who like their hiking classic—with a twist of legend.
You’ll receive access to our trekking app, which serves as your complete digital travel guide for the Tour du Saint Bernard. Inside, you’ll find everything you need for your trek: route descriptions, hiking maps, navigation support, payment information, and all the key details specific to your journey.
During your Tour du Saint Bernard, you will spend your nights in mountain huts. In the mountain huts we normally only book dormitories, but we can look into private rooms on request. If the private rooms are fully booked or not available in the hut, we automatically book a bed in dormitories for you. Please note that private rooms are more expensive and there will be an additional charge for this.
Accommodation in the huts includes dinner and breakfast, unless otherwise indicated in the exclusive list. This allows you to travel lighter and not have to worry about an extra meal. Please note, however, that lunch is not included, but can be purchased at the huts.
Our trekking app also includes built-in navigation support. With GPS-based maps and offline access, you can follow the trail confidently and stay on route even without mobile signal.
You have to make your own way to the starting point. The total amount does not include personal transport.
Should you need any form of (public) transport on location, this is not part of the trekking package. This includes the use of taxi, bus, cable cars, gondolas, ferries, etc.
Your international travel insurance is your own responsibility. Discuss your itinerary with the insurance company before your trek.
Personal expenses on such as souvenirs, drinks, and other similar expenses are for your own account.
Breakfast and dinner are not available at the accommodation. Fortunately, there’s a restaurant in the village within walking distance where you can enjoy a hot meal.
