그레소니 생장‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산길

A great spot to pause before the climb intensifies.

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.

Is there room to pitch tents to sleep?

Col des Fontaines, at 2,695 meters above sea level, is an Alpine pass that enchants with its spectacular views between Val d’Ayas and Valtournenche. The path to reach it winds through pastures and larch forests, offering glimpses of uncontaminated nature and an atmosphere of great tranquility. It is the ideal starting point for exploring the nearby peaks or simply for enjoying a moment of peace immersed in the majestic mountains of the Aosta Valley.

Colle Pinter, at 2,777m, is a pass that connects the Ayas Valley with the Lys Valley, marked by the imposing stone man who greets hikers. Traveling along the AV1, you climb between alpine lakes and scree slopes, up to this natural balcony where the view embraces valleys, glacial peaks and, on clear days, the majestic skyline of Monte Rosa. The air is thin, the silence is heavy: in addition to its landscape value, Pinter is the root of the route towards Bivacco Lateltin or Testa Grigia, a high-altitude crossroads that leaves a deep emotional mark. A place to savor step by step, ideally sipping a sip of water and stopping to contemplate the Alpine immensity.

Hill with gentle slopes and a short climb

Reachable with the ski lifts from Passo dei Salati.
