A serious mountaineering route rated EEA (expert hikers with equipment), climbing from Saint-Jacques (1719 m) to the Rifugio Quintino Sella at 3602 m on the Felik Glacier — 1907 m of gain over 9.5 km. The lower sections cross high pastures and moraines, but the final approach involves glacier travel requiring crampons, ice axe, and harness. The Quintino Sella hut commands sweeping views of the Monte Rosa massif. Assess snow and glacier conditions before departure; this route is strictly for experienced alpinists.
