The ascent from Champoluc to Testa Grigia is the most ambitious hiking itinerary in the Val d'Ayas: 8.2 km and 1814 m of elevation gain lead from 1569 m in the village to 3315 m at the glacial boundary between the Italian and Swiss flanks. The EEA classification — experienced hikers with equipment — indicates that the final section requires ability on glacial or semi-glacial terrain: crampons or microspikes may be needed depending on season. The route follows the Pinter valley on the Alta Via no. 1, with the environment progressively changing from larch woodland to rock and ice. The summit panorama takes in all the Monte Rosa four-thousanders and the Matterhorn in the foreground. July–September only; a very early start is essential.
