Grivoletta, Alpine summit in Aosta Valley, Italy
The Grivoletta peak rises 3,514 meters above sea level, forming a distinct pyramid shape between Valsavarenche and Cogne Valley in the Graian Alps.
The mountain received its current name in 1845, derived from the Valdôtain word 'griva', referring to the song thrush birds found in the region.
The mountain stands as a symbol of alpinism in the Gran Paradiso region, drawing mountaineers who seek technical climbing routes throughout the summer season.
Climbers access the summit through multiple mountain huts, including Rifugio Federico Chabod at 2,750 meters and Bivacco Luciano Gratton at 3,198 meters elevation.
The mountain presents different geological formations on each face, with the southeast wall containing particularly fragile rock structures that require careful navigation.
