Corne de Sorebois

Corne de Sorebois, Mountain summit in Valais, Switzerland

Corne de Sorebois is a mountain peak in the Pennine Alps that sits within a network of alpine pastures and trails accessible from the village of Zinal. The summit overlooks a region shaped by hiking routes and seasonal grazing lands.

The Sorebois name comes from an alpine pasture on the mountain's east slopes. A cable car from Zinal to the Sorebois station at 2438 m opened in 1967, and its cabins were replaced in 2007. In late autumn 2013 a cable car from Grimentz to La Vouarda linked the Grimentz and Zinal ski areas into one arena of 120 km of pistes. In summer 2020 the Zinal lift was rebuilt and extended from Sorebois to La Vouarda.

Sorebois is the name of an alpine pasture on the mountain's east slopes above Zinal. The pastures and the ski area they now cross belong to the Val d'Anniviers farming and tourism economy, and the cable car from Zinal, opened in 1967, carries both herders' supplies and visitors.

The peak can be reached by several hiking trails, with a cable car from Zinal offering faster access to the higher elevations. Visitors should dress for changing weather and bring sturdy footwear suited to alpine conditions.

The 24th stage of SwitzerlandMobil's national Route 6, the Alpine Passes Trail, crosses the southern ridge just above the Col de Sorebois. It runs from the Turtmann valley over the Meidpass and Zinal to Lac de Moiry, then over the Col de Torrent into the Val d'Hérens.
