Val d'Ayas

Ski mountaineering in Ayas

By: Comune di Ayas

Colle Vascoccia- Monte Facciabella

The Val d'Ayas has always been a popular and well-known destination among ski mountaineering enthusiasts, thanks to the width and vastness of the valleys, the presence of forests in the lower part, and the easy accessibility of the 4000 m of the Rosa massif, thus meeting the tastes of both those who like to go out for a simple 'pellata' and the more daring lovers of more adventurous and demanding tours. From the ascent to Colle Vascoccia and Monte Facciabella, or the Corno Bussola - Palasinaz - Mascognaz itinerary are among the most accessible and popular, up to the Becca di Nana, which will take you to the border with Valtournenche; enjoyable and non-technical ascents and descents, which certainly have a different flavour if tackled with the help of our alpine guides. If you are a lover of high mountain mountaineering, they can accompany you to discover the most important and suggestive peaks of the Western Alps such as Lyskamm, Breithorn, Castor and Pollux, or take you on a trip up to the Capanna Margherita, a must for lovers of this discipline.
