In the Gran Paradiso National

Rate this item
(0 votes)
Following its establishment as the first Italian National Park in 1922, the Gran Paradiso has always had a history closely intertwined with the preservation of its animal symbol: the ibex (Capra ibex). Our excursions with snowshoes will be in the beautiful Val di Rhemes - the heart of the park. The charm of the valley, wedged between the giants of rock and ice such as the Gran Paradiso, Entrelor and the legendary Granta Parey, will be appreciated by simple hiking with snowshoes in the woods of larch and snow dunes. Between the high pastures we will be privileged guests on the panoramic balconies looking out towards the mountain ranges that soar as high as 4000 metres. The hotel that hosts us is warm and welcoming, made ​​entirely of local wood and features a wellness area where you can relax at the end of the excursions.

Highlights:
- The National Park of Gran Paradiso and the alpine fauna
- The villages and forests cloaked in snow in front of the giant rock
- The hotel linked to the tradition of the Valley with a relaxing wellness area
