Punta Liet

An easy ski touring route leading to the ridge on the border with Piedmont.
The itinerary begins with a gentle, flat section along a rural road, then enters the beautiful Stoba valley with slopes ideal for skiing – wide, open, and free from avalanche risk.
From the Colletto del Liet, it takes only a few minutes to reach the small, unnamed summit marked on maps.
If you do not have extensive winter mountain experience, it is strongly recommended to go with a mountain guide.
Updated snow conditions can sometimes be found at www.gulliver.it.

From the Pont-Saint-Martin motorway exit, turn right towards Turin. At the second roundabout, turn left in the direction of Gressoney.
After a few hundred metres, turn right onto the Valle del Lys road and follow it all the way to Lillianes. Just before the narrow section of the village, take the road on the right that ascends. At the first junction, continue left.
Ascend the steep mountainside until reaching a fork. Follow the signs for Etoile du Berger. Pass several steep hairpin bends to reach another junction, then continue towards Etoile du Berger, leaving it on the right.
After approximately 1 km, you will reach a small car park where it is possible to leave your vehicle.

From the car, continue along the road until you cross the bridge, then proceed on the opposite bank. Reach a hairpin bend and reverse direction completely.
After a short downhill section, the road continues through a larch forest and enters the wide Stoba basin. Upon reaching the first huts, continue almost to the end of the road, then, after the wooded section, ascend the scenic slopes.
The route from here is non-linear. You will reach the small huts of Liet and subsequently the broad saddle, which offers a view over the Piedmontese side.
By ascending to the left along a short but steep section, you reach the small summit, which is unnamed on maps.
The route is indicative only; the safest path should be chosen according to current snow conditions.
