For the more courageous, departure from Ristolas along the GR58 signposted path towards Collette de Gilly. Along the way, on the right, the Etang du Moussou offers a well-deserved break. For the rest of you, the Gilly chairlift, in the summer season, takes you 500m higher, a great advantage for this aerial hike!
From the chairlift, take the path opposite towards Collette de Gilly, then follow the ridge line to the right, a variant of the GR58.

From the chairlift, take the path opposite towards Collette de Gilly, then follow the ridge line to the right, a variant of the GR58. The bonus: a 360° view of the surrounding peaks, and even further afield if the sky is clear: a breathtaking panorama! From the Peyra Plata ridge, descend to the hamlet of La Monta. Return to Abriès or Ristolas on the free Escarton shuttle bus (during summer school vacations), or on foot along the left bank of the Guil.
