Trilho

S7

From the Rifugio del Lys you reach the Colle Salza (about 2,872 m), a pass between the Lys valley and Valsesia at the foot of Punta Indren. Short but in a high-altitude setting, the trail crosses scree and lingering snowfields with close-up views of the glaciers on Monte Rosa's southern side. A stage for experienced hikers completing the exploration of the Lys head.

Ciências da Terra

Geologia e paisagem

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.

História e 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.
