The route begins from the front door of the hut, as you are traversing a very complicated crevassed glacier. This may be considerably easier early in the season, so it is worth seeking local advice. You are linking a series of glacial benches under Piz Zupo, Piz Argient and the Bellavista. The line as marked here is only a vague guide to the exact route taken and shouldn’t be followed too closely throughout its entire length - pick your exact route according to conditions.

Once you arrive at the high col of the Fuorcla Bellavista the route takes to the ridge and you stay on the crest. This is easy mixed scrambling to start with, but soon becomes a snowy crest, sensational in both beauty and exposure. Traverse the summits of Piz Spinas and both summits of Piz Palü. Finally make the long descent, on a very sharp snow crest in descent to begin with, then down the extremely crevassed Pers Glacier. Finally traverse off to the R and take the easy track to the Diavolezza lift station.
