    Angela

    Asked on September 9th, 2022

    Can you let me know the range of daily elevation gain on this trek?

    Tour Details
    • No Roads ExpeditionsOperatorWritten September 2022

      The altitude gain varies quite a bit but the average gain is between 500 and 700 meters per day. The Gran Paradiso is quite a rugged trek at a much higher elevation than say the Tour du Mont Blanc. We trek over several 3000-meters passes. It is a wonderful trek and I hope you can join us in 2023?
