Description

This 8-day Monte Rosa Massif 4-thousanders' tour is a great chance to summit some of the most beautiful peaks in the Alps.

Monte Rosa Massif is a mountain range located in between the regions of Piedmont and Aosta Valley of Italy and the Valais of Switzerland. It's also the Alps' biggest mountain massif and holds the second highest mountain in western Europe, the Monte Rosa (4634 m). For all of this features, this eastern part of the Pennine Alps could be considered the birthplace of modern mountaineering.

And my goal with this trip will be to take you up to as many 4000's summits as we can. I've been doing this for a long time and I think this is one of the most dynamic programs I've organized. We'll go to several peaks each day and stay in some of the most cozy and traditionals mountain huts in the world. Including the highest construction in the Alps, Margherita cabin (4554 m).

We will start in Zermatt, Switzerland, and we'll spend the next couple of days in the Italian side of the mountains. Then we'll come back to Zermatt. So we'll have a good look of both countries alpine traditions.

I also offer 7-day Gran Paradiso ski mountaineering tour, another great program in the Alps. Make sure you check it out as well!
