Description:
From the mountain hut of Vens (2380 m), take Southeast a tiny pathway which goes up in the small valley formed by the creek of Terre Rousse.
Continue Southeast beyond the lake of Montagnette (2606 m), in the mountain depression of the creek of Montagnette, to reach the mountain pass of Vens (2796 m) by a steady ascent. Here you are in a paradise of chamois, bighorn sheep and ibex.
From the mountain pass, turn South to easily reach the very panoramic peak Borgonio (2954m) by its eastern shoulder.
The return to the mountain hut of Vens takes place via the reverse route.
