Description

This 3-day Trad Climbing course for beginners in Ossola Valley will take those of you with a basic experience in rock climbing to a higher level in the spectacular world of trad!

The Ossola Valley is an area located in the Italian northern province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, in the border with Switzerland. This main valley is surrounded by seven side valleys, creating a paradise for rock climbing.

So this 3-day course will take place in an amazing scenery with smooth walls and great routes to start improving your level and try harder lines. I’ll show you how to climb walls with few or no protections at all. We’ll also try to improve your techniques on cracks, overhangs and slabs.

And, of course, safety issues will be a priority. You’ll practice how to properly use friends, tricams and nuts and learn the main jamming techniques. Finally you’ll practice all of this with a few single-pitch climbs in one of the many beautiful crags in the area.

So send me a request for this 3-day Trad Climbing course and get ready to improve your climbing skills in the beautiful Ossola Valley.

And if you think you might not be up to this level yet don’t worry, you can try an easier course with my 1-day introductory course to rock climbing in Aosta Valley.

Hello Basically I am satisfied with the whole organization, because in the end everything worked as expected, whereby the guide had a big part in the success! Unfortunately, the information regarding equipment was unclear in advance and sometimes varied, which didn't make it any easier for a beginner like me. In general, the flow of information was rather slow, but towards the end it was sufficient and quick. In general, I would recommend that you revise the list of necessary equipment! Above all, it should be clear what the guest has to bring (with a distinction between "must" and "recommended"), what is provided by the organizer and what could be rented if necessary. Of course, this is not easy to accomplish, as the necessary equipment also depends on the conditions. Best wishes and continued success with the organization of ski trips! Martin

Great service. Above and beyond expectations. Abigail went the extra mile to make my trip happen, after hours and at very short notice. It would not have been possible without her. Highly recommended.

Hi, good service from explore share and peaks hunter, only some miscommunication on 2 or 3 days program, due to bad communication between you both. The guide was OK, friendly although non very experienced in the practice of pédagogie and communication, especially before couloir des Goûter s, there can be better briefing on security and also in general on the whole expedition. But he can grow by learning some coaching lessons. We did not do the final ascension due to bad weather, a proposal and financial compensation for 2nd attempt would have been welcome.6/10.can do better.

We just remember now the breathing, the view and the joy we had in Gran Paradiso accompanied by our guides Silvia and Elis. This kind of memory makes us smile and look for the next adventure. Silvia and Elis were attentive, kind and professionally fully prepared to help us reach a great experience of discovery and safety. For sure the moment would not be the same without our guides. We feel grateful and lucky to have their support and company. Elis, Silvia, thanks for taking us beyond.
