(S) From the Mario Bezzi Refuge, take path 12C towards Col Bassac-Déré and the Benevolo Refuge. The ascent follows a path through the mountain pasture, which very quickly gives way to high mountain terrain. The path becomes more challenging as it passes over the pass and reaches a plateau with the Glariettez Glacier below.
(1) Continue along the path marked by large cairns. Pass by the Lower and Upper Basacc Lakes. Follow the few yellow paint markings and, after a steep section, reach Col Bassa-Déré.
(2) Turn right onto the well-marked path and head for the summit of Becca la Traversière (3,337 m).
(3) Retrace your steps to return to the Col de Bassa-Déré.
(2) Turn right onto the descending path 13D, heading towards Lac de la Golettaz, via a fairly steep descent. Reach Lac de la Golettaz.
(4) Cross the stone bridge and continue along the relatively flat path until you reach a junction.
(5) Carry on to the right along the descending path and reach the clearly visible Sauche crossroads with the ruined sheepfold.
(6) Turn right towards the clearly visible Refuge Benevolo.
(7) Cross the Fond stream and the Rhêmes stream, with its remarkable stone bridge, to reach the Refuge Benevolo (E), today’s destination.
