Description of the route

Leave the car in the car park in Barmaz, in Valtournenche, then continue along the dirt track as far as Cheneil. Then take route 31 (on this initial section, route 31 corresponds to Alta Via 1), until you reach a crossroad. Leave the AV1 and take route 31 on the right, which leads to Col Fontana Fredda. From here, continue left up to the Clavalité Sanctuary, built in 1970 and dedicated to Saint Dominic Savio.
