Immerse yourself in the heart of the Gran Paradiso with an exciting 3-hour snowshoe hike.
You will walk along the snow-covered slopes and meadows of the Val di Cogne at an altitude of 1700 metres, together with an expert guide. You will pass through dense forests and characteristic alpine villages, admiring the spectacular panorama of the Gran Paradiso glaciers.

What we will do
The meeting is in Lilaz, a hamlet of Cogne (AO). The guide will welcome us and hand over theequipment (snowshoes and poles), explaining how to use and adjust it. We will then set off on our snowshoe hike in the heart of the Gran Paradiso Park.
We will walk along a 5 km nature trail in Italy's most important protected area. We will cross unspoilt forests and reach typical alpine villages, always with the Gran Paradiso glaciers in front of us.
There will be no lack of panoramic stops to admire the breathtaking scenery and take beautiful photos. The ring-shaped route, which is mainly flat, is easy and suitable for everyone.
The activity lasts about 3 hours and involves returning to the starting point in Cogne.
