Monte Rosa Trail
Route to Monte Rosa.
A beautiful 90-km-long trail with 7,000 m of elevation gain, starting in Pont-Saint-Martin, a town nestled in the vineyards of the Lower Aosta Valley. Immediately after departing from the characteristic Roman bridge, your journey to the Lys Valley will begin, where you will encounter small villages full of magic and tradition. You will then reach Val d'Ayas, passing by the historic castle of Graines, through a succession of magnificent alpine lakes-from which you will be able to admire, among others, the majestic Mount Matterhorn-before heading to the towns of Gressoney-La-Trinité and Gressoney-Saint-Jean, passing the Rothorn pass. A final part of real mountain with breathtaking views will lead you to your destination, and the iconic Monte Rosa will be your companion and accompany you to the finish line in Gressoney-Saint-Jean.
