At the Foot of Monte Rosa, Matterhorn, Gran Paradiso, and Mont Blanc
Our customized snowshoeing tour in Aosta Valley for three hikers from Venezuela was a true success. Thanks to Trekupitaly’s expert organization, excellent services, stable snow conditions, and perfect weather, we spent five unforgettable days exploring this breathtaking region, surrounded by the majestic 4,000-meter peaks of the Alps.
Day 1: Snowshoeing at the Foot of Monte Rosa
We started our adventure in Milan and, after a short two-hour drive, arrived in Val d’Ayas. Our first hiking tour led us to a vast, welcoming plateau at the foot of Monte Rosa, offering a perfect introduction to the region’s alpine beauty. After the trek, we reached our cozy mountain hotel, where we relaxed before enjoying a delicious local dinner.
Day 2: Matterhorn Views and Panoramic Peaks
A scenic transfer brought us to the Cervino Valley, where we embarked on a rewarding snowshoeing tour to a small peak with a breathtaking panorama. From the summit, we admired sweeping views of the Matterhorn, Gran Paradiso, and the entire Aosta Valley. No trekking adventure is complete without a warm drink, so we ended the day enjoying a hot chocolate or craft beer in a traditional mountain bar.
Day 3: Exploring Gran Paradiso National Park
We ventured into the heart of Gran Paradiso National Park, ascending Val di Rhêmes under the watchful presence of the iconic Granta Parey. With energy to spare, we pushed further to reach a high-altitude mountain refuge, nestled near the glaciers at the border of France’s Vanoise National Park.
Day 4: Snowshoeing to Arpy Lake with Mont Blanc Views
Our next stop was Valdigne, where we trekked to the enchanting Lago di Arpy. The journey continued to a spectacular peak offering panoramic views of Mont Blanc and the Grandes Jorasses. With perfect snow conditions, we had an exhilarating time descending with our snowshoes, making the experience even more thrilling.
Day 5: Val Ferret and a Final Ascent with Mont Blanc in Sight
For our last day, we explored Val Ferret, near Courmayeur. We hiked through a wide, scenic valley before ascending to a refuge with a stunning view of Mont Blanc and the surrounding peaks. The landscape was nothing short of breathtaking, making for a perfect grand finale to our Aosta Valley trekking adventure.
