Trilho

S19

A demanding EE-rated route rising from Saint-Jacques (1700 m) to Monte Croce (2895 m) in the Val d'Ayas. The 6.8 km, 1202-metre ascent crosses pasture, moraine and sections of loose or rocky ground that require confident movement in alpine terrain. Summer afternoon thunderstorms are common above 2500 m and conditions can change rapidly. On a clear day the summit delivers one of the finest panoramas in the central Aosta Valley: the east face of Monte Rosa, the unmistakable silhouette of the Matterhorn and the full chain of Valle d'Aosta glaciers. Technical boots and high-altitude experience are essential.
