Advertencias
- Final section on scree and rock with steep or exposed steps: requires a sure foot and a head for heights (EE grade).
- High-altitude route: start early, plan time and water, and turn back before early afternoon.
- Residual snow may linger in gullies and on north-facing slopes into early summer: assess current conditions.

The Col du Pinter (2,777 m) is the historic pass linking the Ayas Valley with Gressoney's Lys Valley. From the Ostafa alp, reached from the Champoluc plateaux, waymark no. 12 climbs through pastures and scree to the col, which offers one of the widest panoramas in the Alps: the whole south face of Monte Rosa with its 4,000ers, the Matterhorn to the west and, beyond the pass, the Walser villages of Gressoney. A classic traverse stage and a goal in itself for fit hikers; snow can linger high up into early summer.
