Overview

Your first 4000-metre peak is an experience you will never forget. Punta Giordani is the perfect introduction for anyone who has never experienced the high mountain environment and wishes to step into the world of mountaineering and the 4000ers of Monte Rosa. The ascent does not present any particular technical difficulties and can be easily completed in a single day.

Period: From June to September  

Programme

We will meet at 07:30 at the Staffal cable car ticket office, from where we will take the lift up to Punta Indren (3270 m). From there, we will rope up and begin our ascent on the Indren glacier, until the snow gives way to rock.

The final part is an easy yet spectacular stretch over rocky terrain, leading all the way to the summit cross at 4046 metres: your very first 4000-metre peak, with a rewarding view that makes every effort worthwhile. 

The climb takes approximately 2 hours 30 minutes to 3 hours.

What to know before you set off

Mountaineering is by its very nature an adventurous activity. The Monte Rosa guides, all of whom are UIAGM certified, are dedicated to doing everything possible to minimise any hazards, but a element of risk is always present and should be embraced as part of the adventure before signing up for our activities.

The Monte Rosa Guides will always do their utmost to help you achieve your personal goals and ensure you have the best possible experience in nature. However, you must agree to trust their professional judgement whilst in the mountains and respect any decision they make, including turning back, should it be deemed necessary. Being well-prepared and maintaining a good level of physical fitness is essential to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey on all our excursions. If, due to fitness levels or any other reason, your guide feels you are not quite ready for your chosen activity, they will happily suggest alternative adventures beautifully suited to your current level of preparation.
