Salida
Rifugio Elisabetta Soldini · 2156 m
Llegada
La Thuile · 1440 m
From Elisabetta, descend toward Col des Chavannes (2603 m) and cross Porassey and Orgères before reaching La Thuile valley floor.
A stage of crests and scenic cols: from the Col Chavannes — the high point, looking from Mont Blanc to the Rutor — you walk down the endless, gentle Chavannes valley among ruined alps and marmots, to the Little St Bernard pass and the descent to La Thuile. No support point for many hours: stock up on water at the hut.

Geología y paisaje
Southern flank of the Mont Blanc massif: Austroalpine basement gneiss and micaschists, Würmian moraines and proglacial deposits in Val Veny. The Brenva Glacier still shapes the valley floor morphology.
Historia y cultura
At the Little St Bernard an Iron Age stone circle, Roman columns of the Gallic road and the medieval hospice coexist: three thousand years of crossings within a few hundred metres.
