トレントの峠・トップ20

trail 24 to the Fiorio bivouac

On Mont Buet you are directly opposite Mont Blanc and have a good view of it. From the Refuge de la Pierre a Berard it takes about 3 hours to reach the summit

A pass that will live forever in the shadow of its big brother just around the corner, however, it is a fantastic place to visit and much quieter than the Grand Col Ferret, as it is not part of the popular Tour du Mont-Blanc . Many trails lead to this point, allowing for all sorts of trails and versatility - all of these trails are multi-use hiking trails, so be sure to consider other people during your stroll. This pass is also perched on the Swiss/Italian border, with great views and great routes on both sides.

Smaller and less busy than its neighbouring Grand Col Ferret, the Petit Col Ferret offers some great views into both Italy and Switzerland, as well as the sea of mountains within both of them. The trails leading to and from this col are perfect trail running terrain, as well as being slightly quieter than the nearby trails which are used by the popular Tour of Mont Blanc and UTMB.

Mont Buet is a huge mountain, nestled on the remote Swiss side of the Chamonix valley. The mountain itself is an expanse of rock, with steep walls or open scree slopes. The summit itself is a fantastic and ambitious goal for any aspiring mountain runner, as the ascent can be done with little technical difficulty. It is still very much a mountain, and necessary precautions must be taken. Bring the right equipment, choose good conditions and only go if you have the appropriate experience. This summit, however, will reward you with unbeatable views of the Mont Blanc massif, the Chamonix valley, and even the Matterhorn on a good day.

An imposing mountain, 3100 meters high, offering an elevation gain of 2000 meters from most angles. You will be rewarded with some of the most beautiful views of the valley, an unspoiled perspective of Mont Blanc, and even the Matterhorn. The summit is barren and isolated, truly an authentic alpine environment. This mountain has been used as a training ground for Mont Blanc for decades, but it is a worthy climb in its own right.

Also doable with the VTT from grand Ferret

Very nice pass on the Italo-Swiss border, much less frequented than its big brother. It is located at the foot of Mont Dolet, just northwest of the Tête de Ferret, which separates it from the Grand Col Ferret, just one kilometer away. From there, you can reach the combe des Fonds, on the Swiss side, or the Riffugio Elena, on the Italian side. A path also joins the Grand Col Ferret passing just below the head, or the Cesare Fiorio bivouac, at the foot of the Pré de Bar glacier, in Italy. The climb on the Swiss side is often cluttered with snow until late in the season, and is very steep on the Italian side, in grassy paths.
