Col de Fenestral is ocated in Saxon, Valais, Switzerland. It's a 14,8km loop that offers stunning views and the chance to spot some wildlife. The trail takes you to the beautiful Col du Fenestral and its hut, which sits at an altitude of 2454 meters. From there, you can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding region. It is one of those very not well known hikes, only by locals, so high chance you won't meet anyone on the way. Which in my opinion is the best way to experience the Alps.
