Description

Would you like to get to the roof of the Apennines? If you love mountaineering, an ascent to the Gran Sasso d’Italia is a must! Don’t miss this incredible opportunity.

The Gran Sasso d’Italia Massif is located in the Abruzzo Mountains of the Apennines. Its highest peak, Corno Grande, lies at an altitude of 2,912 meters above sea level. This is also the tallest summit in the Italian Peninsula.

I invite you to reach this peak on a 1-day program. Our starting point will be Prati di Tivo, a little village near the massif. We’ll begin our trekking and explore the Vallone delle Cornacchie, a glacier valley between Corno Grande and Corno Piccolo. Then, before getting to the summit, we’ll reach Rifugio Carlo Franchetti, at 2,433 meters above sea level. During the whole program, we’ll be able to contemplate breathtaking alpine landscapes.

Please, take into account that this program is for participants with background mountaineering experience and a good level of fitness. Of course, I will be there to assist you all the way. 

So do you think this program is for you? Then get in touch with me by sending your request and we’ll start preparing for this fantastic adventure in the Apennines.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
