The highest peak in Italy and the seventh highest in the Graian Alps, Gran Paradiso is located between the Aosta Valley and the Piedmont regions in Northern Italy, and is an achievable and rewarding first European ascent.
Learn introductory skills for mountaineering, and then consolidate your skills on a training climb followed by an ascent of Gran Paradiso where you can take in the amazing views across to the Mt Blanc Massif before your return to Chamonix that afternoon. Perfect!
