We meet up at Staffal at 9am to meet the group and the guide. After an initial briefing, we take the cable car up to Gabiet to get up to speed quickly.
From the arrival of the cable car, we begin our approach walk. The path is accessible and gradual, allowing us to acclimatise gently while discovering the high altitude landscapes of the Mont Rose massif. It's about an hour and a half's walk to the Orestes Mountain hut, set in an open landscape facing the glaciers.
After a break at the Mountain hut, we set off on our first ascent: Punta Telcio (2833m). This summit is an excellent warm-up for the start of our trip, with a varied and accessible route.
If the conditions are favourable, we can enjoy a picnic lunch on the banks of Lac Vert or Lac Bleu, two emblematic sites in the area offering beautiful views of the surrounding peaks.
Return to the Mountain hut in the late afternoon to settle in, share dinner and prepare for the rest of the itinerary with the guide.
