Follow the Planètes Trail to the Toûno/Chiesso mountain pasture. From there, continue along the small valley on the left heading toward the Col de Forcletta. Once you reach the southern slope of the mountain, turn left toward Lake Toûno.
1.
At the Toûno Lake/Forcletta junction, turn right and head for the small ridge of the Bella-Vouarda Pass, from where you can descend directly to the Nava mountain pasture at a place called Tsahèlet. The Imperial Crown of the five 4,000-meter peaks unfolds before your eyes, hence the name Bella-Vouarda. Return to
via the Sierre-Zinal trail and the Hotel Weisshorn, which you reach on the right from Tsahèlet (4 hours—moderate difficulty).
2.
From Bella-Vouarda, continue toward the Col de Forcletta, which rises to an altitude of 2,874 m. From the Bella-Vouarda Pass to the Col de Forcletta and back to Saint-Luc: 6.5 hours—moderate difficulty.
3.
For the return trip, take the German-speaking side with an overnight stay in the Gruben. The next day, return to Saint-Luc via the Meiden Pass to complete a magnificent loop (return via Forcletta and Gruben: 8–9 hours / return from Gruben via the Meiden Pass: 5.5 hours).
