Hey everyone,

we’re a group of four guys from Germany, all around 18 years old, and we’re just getting into mountaineering. We’re planning our first bigger alpine tour this summer and have set our sights on Gran Paradiso.

Since we’re still pretty new to this, we’d really appreciate any advice, tips, or guidance from more experienced climbers. If anyone is planning to be in the area or staying at one of the huts around that time, it would be awesome to connect — maybe even team up for part of the climb or just learn a bit from you. We Are planing to Go there between 2-8 August 2026

We’re motivated, respectful, and eager to learn as much as we can.

Thanks in advance!
