Accompany me on a 2-day climb of the beautiful Italian peak, Gran Paradiso (4,061m).
The Gran Paradiso mountain in the Aosta Valley certainly deserves its name. If you are seeing it up close while climbing it to the top, or if you are seeing it from a distance, the mountain has all the attributes of a paradise peak worthy of all the praise it receives. It rises from the ground, majestic and calm, covered with snow. And despite its jagged, powerful face, it is actually one of the easier mountains in the Alps to climb. It is also the only mountain more than 4,000 meters high that has a summit that is entirely in Italy. Thus making its ascent a truly Italian experience. And once you reach the summit, you can look into France and see the amazing Mont Blanc Massif.
As for the climb itself, it will be a combination of mountaineering and ski-touring. Making it a great adventure that will keep you energetic and enthralled throughout. And to rest for the night, you will be staying in one of the mountain's comfortable refuges. So whether its skiing through the snow or scaling the mountain's rocky surface, you will have ample opportunity to enjoy and admire the amazing Gran Paradiso mountain. And with a climb that isn't exclusive to experts, this trip is an open invitation to anybody with some climbing experience who wants to scale a mountain that is nothing short of a paradise.
So come and let me guide you on an ascent of Italy's highest summit. Where you will get to enjoy some of the most amazing views of the Graian Alps.
I'll be awaiting your message.
And if you want to climb the legendary Mont Blanc in France, you can also join me on this trip.

Guide was good, skiing was mediocre but that is because of snow conditions which can't be helped.

Quentin nous a encadré pour deux journées de ski de rando. Il a su mixer à merveille le coté découverte de la montagne et le coté sportif du ski de rando. Quentin nous a également fait profiter d'une initiation à la recherche ARVA. Ce fut deux journées très enrichissantes. Merci Quentin !

Quentin m'a permis de découvrir le ski de randonnée, que j'aimerais, grâce à lui, pouvoir essayer à nouveau. Son côté belge est très sympathique et son expérience de la montagne est enrichissante.

Un guide belge, que demander de mieux lorsqu’on vient de la même région que lui. Il a pris la tête de la randonnée et nous a fait vivre une expérience inoubliable. Quatre heures de montée pour vingt minutes de pur plaisir. C’est certain, il sait nous régaler et nous faire rêver. Merci Quentin et j’espère à la prochaine !

Quentin, un guide toujours souriant tout en restant professionnel, on a vraiment passé une semaine de folie à ses cotés. Très professionnel quand il faut, il sait aussi s'amuser le soir dans le refuge ce qui nous permet de voir une autre facette des guides de hautes montagnes. Sans prise de tête, il a réussi à emmener un groupe de jeunes ( très peu sportif :) ) à 3000 mètres d'altitude en peau de phoque. Il rend la montagne beaucoup plus belle et intéressante. Merci à lui et à son équipe!!!

The conditions were hard, a lot of wind and some cloud layers downside. Quentin managed to keep the group together and drove us trough deep powder on the lower parts of Alpe d'huez since La Grave was closed. It is an excellent guide with huge human skills ! We loved our journey with Quentin and are sure we will ride together again soon

Great time with Quentin, a guide as we like. Professional, human and super nice. I have already done several routes in mountain et ice climbing (Dents du Geant, tour ronde in the corridor Gervasutti, le Rateau ouest, ...) and every time a beautiful human adventure. Seb

Quentin is simply an awesome guide. It was one of my first climbing experiences and Quentin helped me feel safe. He is very professional and knows how to manage groups of people. Despite the changes in our project, Quentin always tried to accomodate the best options for the group. His experience and knowledge of the mountain gave confidence to each group member. The fact that he is both physiotherapist and guide is a great advantage, regarding physical preparation and stretching for example. Thanks Quentin! And see you next year on top of the Mont-Blanc!

Quentin is a great guide. I really learned a lot about the mountains when I ski touring with him. I felt safe all the time and also had great fun !
