A fascinating realm of glaciers and snow, Grand Paradiso is certainly one of the best easy climbs of the Alps: especially suited to all wildlife lovers! The Gran Paradiso Normal Route is considered the perfect climb for those who have a minimum of experience and dream of conquering their first 4000 metres. During the ascent, we will stay one night at Chabod Hut, tasting good local food and resting up for the following day.

How to approach the Gran Paradiso ascent
Although the Gran Paradiso climb is considered one of the easiest in the Alps, it should still not be underestimated, and good preparation is essential. First of all, given the high effort and many hours of walking, good physical fitness and endurance level is necessary. Also, a basic amount of mountaineering experience is require, especially in glacier progression and using crampons and ice axes. If you have never done anything like this, we recommend a preparatory day with hiking on the Mont Blanc glacier, or even better a mountaineering tour for beginner around Mont Blanc.
The 1-day “TRAINING ON MONT BLANC GLACIER” is the best choice for training and learning the basic techniques to tackle the first 4.000 m.
