Access

Bivouac located at the end of the Valnontey valley at the foot of Becca di Gay 3621m. From Valnontey, go up the valley following the marked path 22, after 6Km you reach the foot of the difficulties, after crossing the large torrent (huge) on the footbridge (impassable without the footbridge) to cross to the right bank, continue on the path, leave the fork to the left that goes up to Alpe Money, and take the next right path marked 22F further on. After crossing the lower part of the moraine, which is slightly overgrown with vegetation, you will climb the steep moraine with a turn towards the South-East. Once you reach the upper plateau, the path leaves the moraine and descends south onto this plateau. You then cross the torrent coming from the glacier (by going up the torrent for 100m, you will find a place where you can cross the torrent more easily), the path continues with a steep climb up a rocky step with a turn towards the East, which will easily lead you to the bivouac from behind.
