Val de Nana via Rifugio Tournalin to Cervinia

This tour is for expert skiers and starts in the pretty village of Saint Jacques at the end of the Valley of Ayas - this area has no lifts or pistes! Skins are used to make the ascent up the snow covered road to the Rifugio Tournalin sitting below the pass of Col de Nana and the towering mountain Grand Tournalin at 3300m. Thats the easy part. The next valley you descend into is the valley of Ayas (Champoluc) which continues into the valley of Valtournenche (Cervinia) via the pass of Col de Nana and Cime Bianche - this is where the ski tour requires excellent technical skills.
