Itinerary description

<<< English follows >>> Esta ruta comienza en el telesilla que sube a Weissmatten desde Gressoney-Saint-Jean. El precio es de 8 euros ida y vuelta. Cuidado con los horarios de cierre. Puedes dejar el coche gratis en el aparcamiento del telesilla. Cogiendo el telesilla te ahorras 600 metros de desnivel. La idea inicial era llegar hasta los lagos de Frudière pero en el punto marcado como "No subir por canchal" me equivoqué y subí a un collado próximo al monte Taf. El suelo de toda la ruta es incómodo, de roca y hay que cruzar tres canchales. Al final estás más atento de mirar donde pones el pie que del paisaje. En la llegada del telesilla hay un bar de estilo alpino muy bonito. El día no estaba muy claro y las nubes ocultaban varias cumbres del macizo Monte Rosa. <<< English >>> This route starts at the chairlift that climbs to Weissmatten from Gressoney-Saint-Jean. The price is 8 euros return. Beware closing times. You can leave your car in the free parking at the chairlift. Taking the chairlift you save 600 vertical meters. The initial idea was to reach the lakes of Frudière but at the point marked "Do not climb the scree" I made a mistake and went to a pass nearby to Mount Taf. The floor of the entire route is uncomfortable, rocky and you have to cross three screes. At the end you pay more attention to where you put your foot rather than to enjoy the landscape. On the arrival of the chairlift there is a very nice bar in alpine style. The day was not very clear and the clouds hid several peaks of Monte Rosa massif.
