The Vallanta Pass marks the watershed between Italy and France. From here you can see the northwest face of Monviso and dream of its summit, which seems really close.

Hiking

Pass at the Franco-Italian border, on the tour of the Viso. Lots of snow on the French side. Gentle slope, does not require equipment.
