The Bocchetta di Eclou pass connects Val d&#8217;Ayas with the <strong>Estoul Lakes<\/strong> basin, which can be reached in a very short tampo via the <em>Val d&#8217;Ayas Trail 6B<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Once you reach Bocchetta, it takes about an hour to reach <strong>Punta Valnera <\/strong><strong>(2754 m)<\/strong>, one of the peaks located just above the town of Gressoney-Saint-Jean (clearly visible from the summit). You can get there in two ways: either along a rather challenging ridge trail (via the continuation of Trail 4), or by following an alternative route without any technical difficulty that reaches the <strong>Valnera Colletto<\/strong> and then climbs directly to the Peak.<\/p>\n<p>Punta Valnera is about half an hour from <strong>Colle Valnera (2676 m)<\/strong>, which can be reached from the valley floor via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sentierigressoney.it\/en\/sentieri\/punta-valfredda-trail-5\/\" class=\"sentiero-chip clickable-chip\">\n                    <i class=\"fas fa-hiking
