マクニャーガの峠・トップ20

Was worshipped by smugglers

A great spot to pause before the climb intensifies.

The Monte Moro Pass is located on the border between Switzerland and Italy, connecting the Saas Valley in Valais to the Anzasca Valley in Piedmont. The unique feature of this pass is that it is accessible via a medieval mule track. The route and photos are available at: https://treksrandos.fr/alpes/valais/alpes-pennines/col-de-monte-moro/

If you want to avoid the section with the hemp ropes, where you often find a "tail," you can cut across the gully, clearly visible from the north-facing station. This will take you just above the Mantova refuge, practically to the Gnifetti refuge.

Reachable with the ski lifts from Passo dei Salati.

Pass connecting Valle Barranca, Valsesia and Valle Anzasca. Suggestive step in a very fascinating wild area.

Punta Indren station, at 3,275 meters above sea level, can be reached from Staffal. Numerous routes start from here to reach Capanna Gnifetti - and consequently Capanna Margherita - Punta Giordani and other peaks of Monte Rosa. It is always a good idea to check the times of the first and last ride of the day when organizing a climb.

When the golden statue emerges from the fog... great!
