Beautiful peak that is likely the most climbed 4000 meter peak in Italy. Still magnificent. Non-technical with a few crevasse requiring a rope. Summit rock is easy, easy 5th class.

Just did the hike from valnontey to rifuggio Vitorio sella Only approx 12kms but 900 odd up was tiring but beautiful Views were stupendous for most of the walk and plenty of animals to view as well The rifuggio also provided hearty meals at the top Allow 2 to 3.5 hours to get up to the top It took us 2.5 and though my wife doesn’t enjoy uphills of the magnitude she soldiered on and loved it overall Easy parking at 4 euros for the day…

This is undoubtedly a beautiful national park. If you're in the region it's definitely worth a visit. Entrance is free and parking is cheap. The memories you'll create are priceless. We visited with a young family and followed the loop trail from Lillaz to Lake Loie and return via an alternate route (ie trails 12 and 13). We thought it would take 5.5hrs, but it took us 8 hrs. Along the way we encountered ibex, chamois, frogs, butterflies and marmots. Lago Loie is beautifully serene and the view of the valley from up there is breathtaking. An exhausting but incredible experience and one we will never forget. My full review (with photos) and many others are here, under the Italian listing for Parco Nazionale Gran Paradiso (the reviews can be easily translated with TA): https://www.tripadvisor.com.au/Attraction_Review-g187863-d669170-Reviews-Parco_Nazionale_Gran_Paradiso-Aosta_Valle_d_Aosta.html…

Such an amazing place to visit and put into a bucket list of things to do before dying! Hahaha, okay let me be back serious. This place offers during winter season many possibility to have fun with your family or your friends or just enjoy your solo trip. When I have been there, it was so cold and I couldn't walk for the entire path of the park (usually during spring you can enjoy the beauty of animals, plants, flowers and so on). By the way, I took my ski equipment and I could ski freely and also watch the match out there. To reach such a place, I took train from Turin to Aosta (so, I was also able to visit another brilliant city of Italy) and then, from there a bus to Cogne. Absolutely recommended! Gooooooo…
