Full description
Follow the tracks of the wild animals that roam free in the Gran Paradiso National Park. Framing your safari will be the peaks of the Alps and endless meadows.
If you love nature, this walk will allow you to admire marmots, chamois, bearded vultures and golden eagles up close.
From Valsavarenche, the Nature Hiking Guides will lead you to discover the best spots to observe wild nature in all its splendour.
What we will do
We will meet in Valsavarenche, in the province of Aosta , at the time chosen at the time of booking. We will set off on foot from the car park and walk along paths through Alpine forests frequented by wonderful free-roaming wild animals.
With the Alpine Safari, we will have the chance to admire statuesque ibexes posing to be photographed. In the meadows we will be able to spot young and adult marmots engaged in socialising rituals, and with a watchful eye we may even spot some chamois running from one end of the forest to the other.
Turning our gaze upwards, we can admire golden eagles, queens of the alpine sky, and lammergeyers, massive vultures that choose the Gran Paradiso to nest. The majesty of these birds will leave us speechless.
Our walk will be framed by snow-capped peaks and endless meadows, in a setting of exceptional beauty that will allow us to admire wild nature in all its integrity.
The activity will last approximately 3 hours. As a rule, an altitude difference of about 200 metres will be covered.
