Hike beneath the legendary giants of the Italian Alps along the Giants’ Trail: Alta Via 1, from Donnas to Courmayeur through the breathtaking Aosta Valley. This inspiring 180km (112-mile) route, also known as the Tour of the Giants (Tor des Géants), traces the northern flank of the valley in the shadows of Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn, Monte Rosa, and the Grand Combin.
Experience a two-week alpine adventure on quiet trails, far from the crowds, through spectacular mountain scenery, isolated villages, and welcoming refuges. Perfect for trekkers with some alpine experience seeking a rewarding challenge, this authoritative Cicerone guidebook describes the Giant’s Trail in 16 stages, each ranging from 4 to 17km (2–11 miles).
It also offers a range of options to tailor your journey, whether you wish to complete the entire trek in one go or split it into two one-week sections, with convenient access at Valtournenche. Alternative variants, including an unforgettable detour to the historic Great St Bernard Monastery, allow you to personalise your trek according to your interests, fitness, and the weather.
Marvel at the snow-capped massifs of Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn, Monte Rosa, and the Grand Combin, as each day brings new views and unforgettable moments among the highest mountains in Italy and the Alps. Each stage features clear route descriptions, with distance, ascent/descent, walking time, and detailed information on accommodation, mountain huts, and refreshment options, plus advice on merging shorter stages for longer days or pausing to explore mountain villages like Gressoney and Champoluc, and to sample the region’s rich culture.
Includes 1:50,000 mapping for every stage, downloadable GPX tracks, and concise summary tables for itinerary planning, ensuring straightforward navigation and flexibility for both full and partial treks of the Giants’ Trail. Essential advice covers preparation, weather, and when to go (huts open late June–early September), travel and local transport, mountain safety, flora, fauna, history, and culture, so you are equipped for every aspect of your Aosta Valley adventure.
Public transport options allow you to access the route at multiple points, making it easy to customise your trek to fit your schedule and energy levels, and to explore the Aosta Valley’s towns and villages. The Alta Via 1 is more demanding than the Tour of Mont Blanc but poses minimal technical difficulty, making it ideal for experienced walkers seeking a quieter, more authentic Alpine trek.
Can be combined with Alta Via 2 through the Gran Paradiso to form the full Tor des Géants circuit, an epic journey around the entire Aosta Valley beneath the greatest peaks in the Alps. Plan your journey along the Giants’ Trail: Alta Via 1 with the definitive Cicerone guidebook, and discover a hidden gem of the Western Alps, where every step reveals new panoramas, warm hospitality, and the enduring spirit of adventure beneath the greatest peaks in Europe.
