From the top of Mont Fortin you can admire the majestic Mont Blanc and the suggestive Miage glacier, as well as the Rutor glacier. In the distance you can also see the Gran Paradiso. Reaching this peak from any side requires a bit of effort, but the panoramic view you enjoy repays the effort.

Hiking

Great hike, we had to turn around just 50 meters under the top because of a big steep snowfield. Check if possible if there is snow on top up front
