Llegada

Rifugio Dondena · 2185 m

Climb to Fenêtre de Champorcher, skirt Lake Misérin and Rifugio Misérin before descending to Dondena in Mont Avic Regional Park.

The Fenêtre de Champorcher (2,827 m) is the Alta Via’s last great pass: from the col, on clear days, Monte Rosa fills the north-eastern horizon. You descend to Lake Miserin and its sanctuary, destination of a centuries-old procession, and continue through high grasslands to the Dondena hut, inside the Mont Avic Natural Park.
