Testa del Rutor

Day one:
From Bonne, continue along the road towards the end of the valley and take the farm road on the right for Arp Vieille. Follow it and turn left at the first fork. You’ll find the Ricci chalet after the Meillares and Vieille alps. Climb the steeper slopes on the right to the one on the left. Continue North to the hill which, with a small drop, leads to the Degli Angeli hut.

Day two:
Cross the slope heading for the Morion glacier. Climb the steep mandatory route, then towards the right, to the hidden canyon that leads to the Rutor hill (were the old Deffeyes hut used to be). Go slightly around the peak and climb the steep final slope.
Descent along the upwards itinerary.

This itinerary requires experience of high mountains and it is recommended that you get a mountain guide to accompany you.

Before your ski mountaineering trip, always check the weather forecast and the snow and avalanche bulletin and set off equipped with avalanche transceiver, shovel and probe.
