The mountain became a significant climbing destination when the Gran Paradiso National Park was established in 1922 to protect local wildlife and natural resources.

Local mountaineering traditions include organized group climbs during summer festivals, connecting generations of climbers through shared experiences on Piccolo Paradiso's routes.

Access to Piccolo Paradiso requires technical climbing equipment, proper physical preparation, and guidance from certified mountain professionals during the June to September season.
