Cabane de Panossière

Description

Nestled at 2,645 metres above sea level in the heart of the Val de Bagnes, the FXB Panossière Hut is a true balcony overlooking the glacial world of the Grand Combin, one of the iconic peaks of the Valais Alps. Surrounded by spectacular landscapes, it overlooks the Corbassière Glacier, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the seracs, ridges, and steep faces of the massif.
An unmissable stop for hikers, mountaineers, and mountain lovers. Thanks to the Corbassière Footbridge, which spans the torrent flowing from the glacier, the site has become an iconic destination in the region.
Whether as a stage on the Tour des Combins, a base for an alpine ascent, or simply a place to admire the ice giants in an unspoilt setting, the Cabane de Panossière is a true jewel of the Swiss high mountains.
To fully enjoy the beauty of the landscapes, we recommend reaching the Panossière Hut via the Brunet Hut, passing over the Col des Avouillons and the suspension bridge over the Corbassière Glacier. For the return, the descent to Fionnay offers a different yet equally spectacular perspective, transitioning from glacial panoramas to alpine forests and pastures.
