イーゾラデルグランサッソディタリアの天然記念物・トップ20

Given the steepness, trekking poles are recommended.

The Campo Imperatore plateau is a picturesque place with breathtaking views. Known as Little Tibet, it is surrounded by the main peaks of the Gran Sasso range. At its highest point, we find the old hotel where Mussolini was held prisoner, the Astronomical Observatory, and the cable car. Numerous trails branch off toward the peaks of the Gran Sasso range.

It has nothing to envy of the equally beautiful Dolomite landscapes

The Normal Route is a fairly simple route, except for the last 400 meters, the gully and the ridge, which, being EEA grade (expert equipped hikers), require considerable physical strength and technique. Mountaineering boots are also required, and a helmet is recommended. Since the ridge is also quite technical, it is absolutely not suitable for those with a fear of heights, the elderly, children, or anyone without mountaineering experience.

A Classic from Campo Imperatore, I recommend excursions even for those who are new to the area, beautiful panorama

We tried to walk around Corno Piccolo, but that is not possible without gear. Halfway we had te go back and then walked up to the Refugio. Very nice view and very nice walk.

The Madonnina is the point of reference for those who frequent the Gran Sasso. The cable car that goes up from Prati di Tivo arrives here. It is the starting point of the path that leads to the Franchetti refuge and the various summit paths. The path that goes up to the Madonnina from Prati di Tivo is however a beautiful excursion suitable for anyone.

Spectacular climb to Campo Imperatore, constant but never impossible slopes. The view repays the effort made!!
