A tour is the best option.

If you want to go to the top, take a tour. The guide does an enormous amount of work to make your trip a success. It would be highly stressful to do it on your own.

Big day - great day in the alps

It’s a full day so bring water, a sandwich and snacks because there’s not really much time to get food along the way. It was a fabulous day, our guide Kid was wonderful, funny, and took plenty of photos of us asking the way so that we got some great pics of our day.
