Sendero

S1

A steep climb from Staffal to the Passo Inferiore della Bettolina (about 2,800 m), a panoramic pass between the head of the Lys and the Monterosa Ski area towards the Col d'Olen. The trail climbs grassy hollows and scree, the view widening over the Lys glaciers and the Gressoney valley floor. A high-altitude stage also used as a hiking variant of the Monte Rosa circuit.

Ciencias de la Tierra

Geología y paisaje

The bedrock is that of the Monte Rosa nappe — continental-crust gneisses and granites, greenstones of the Alpine ocean — carved and polished by the Lys glaciers, among recent moraines and roches moutonnées.

Historia y cultura

This is Walser country: the Alemannic settlers who crossed the Monte Rosa glaciers from Valais in the 13th century left Gressoney the Töitschu language, timber-and-stone stadel and the German names of the peaks.
