On our last day we have a number of options. One of the best is an ascent over the Vorder Galmihorn and down the Bächital to Reckingen. From the summit of the Galmihorn to Reckingen, deep in the valley, we get to enjoy almost 7000 vertical feet of skiing. Facing south, the Bächital often gets great corn snow. Another good option is the Galmilicke and the ridge to the south. This route takes us down to Münster, only a couple kilometers from Reckingen. These are the to routes shown on the map above. If the weather is poor, our best escape is east, down the Oberaargletscher, then east to the Grimselpass, then down the snow-covered road to a taxi pick-up.

All but the last of these routes finish in Goms, the upper Rhône Valley. From here we catch a mountain train to Brig and can then continue back around the Berner Oberland to return to Interlaken. Usually we arrive in Interlaken in the late afternoon, plenty of time to take a shower and enjoy a good and well-deserved dinner.
