We’ll meet up in Staffal at 10.00 to meet the group and the guide, then we’ll set off on our route towards Punta Telcio. The path climbs gradually through high-altitude meadows and rocky terrain, already offering beautiful views of the glaciated peaks of the Monte Rosa massif.
First, we reach the Blue Lake (Bloabesee), situated at an altitude of 2,687 metres. We then continue our route to the Green Lake (Griensee), two iconic glacial lakes in the area that offer stunning views of the surrounding peaks.
From Lac Vert, the terrain gradually becomes rockier and we continue our ascent towards Punta Telcio. The path leads us to the final ridge, passing through a pass at 2,769 metres before reaching the summit of Punta Telcio at 2,833 metres. From the summit, we enjoy our first panoramic view of the glaciers and peaks of Monte Rosa, before beginning the descent towards the Mountain hut.
We then head to the Orestes Hütte, where we settle in for the evening. After this first day, which allows us to gradually gain altitude and acclimatise, we share dinner with the group and plan the rest of our itinerary in the massif with the guide.
