Description

Those who enjoy woodland walks will love this route.

Contouring up between the trees, seeing them thin out as you ascend.

Keeping up your momentum to reach the mid-alpine pastures.

Then a final effort to reach the Bella Tola mountain hut.

But do be careful: although the 724-metre climb takes about 2 hours, it's advisable to have a few hours' training behind you before you attempt this route, which is classed as "red". Only climbing skins are allowed on these routes (snowshoes are not permitted).

Good-quality equipment can be rented or bought from local sports shops.
