Description

Come with me to this wonderful adventure of climbing around the great Monviso in the Italian Alps. The mountain stands out with its more than 3500 meters and attracts climbers from all over the world.

There are several climbing routes you can choose from and the difficulty is not great. Among the climbing options there are: Punta Roma, Punta Udine and Punta Venezia.  The last one surrounds the Giacoletti hut, where we will reach on the first day.

At a walking distance from there we will reach over 3000 meters high. We will achieve this by climbing routes of about 300 meters which face the North wall of the Monviso. Therefore, we should start climbing in the morning so you will have the chance of enjoying the warmth of the Sun.

All of a sudden, heavy fog will invade the enormous mountain. The intense heat coming from the close-by ground causes this particular phenomenon. The fog invades the Monviso creating a magical and extraordinary environment.

Furthermore, remember anybody can join this trip because it is for all climbing fans, whether you are beginner or experienced. The routes present almost none unpredictability.

I will guide you in groups of no more than 2 people to guarantee a personalized excursion. Besides that, you can choose the climbing routes you like. However, it is important to always follow my instructions to make the most out of this experience.

Come with me and enjoy every second of this Monviso Mountain tour. I guarantee you it will be a trip you won’t forget. I’ll be wanting for your contact. It will be a great pleasure to accompany you through this unique climbing adventure.

Gabriele was a fantastic guide, knew the area well and found so much powder. Thanks so much

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.

Silvia was fantastic in helping get everything set up, from recommending accommodations and buses to organizing the meet-up with my guide. Mateo was a great guide, found the perfect route for my experience and skill level. A truly amazing experience that I didn't think would be possible.
