Acclimatisation is often overlooked, yet it's one of the most important parts of preparing for your climb to Capanna Margherita. Taking time to adapt to the altitude helps you stay relaxed, feel stronger, and enjoy the experience with confidence.
If reaching the Capanna Margherita is your next goal, don’t rush it. Add at least a couple of days to your itinerary just for acclimatisation. Slow down and plan your trip like a well-crafted adventure. Forget the “in-and-out” approach.
The mountains offer unforgettable emotions—but they don’t follow your schedule. You’re the one who needs to adapt. And no, it’s not just about experience. The real difference between a beginner and a true mountaineer lies in their mindset. Give your emotions the time they deserve.
This high-altitude trek is accessible to many, but a decent level of fitness is required. Expect 4–5 hours of walking at altitude. It’s not technically difficult—no exposed sections or rock climbing—but it’s a long glacier hike, done roped together, crossing areas where crevasses may be present.
You can climb from late February to mid-September. The best time is usually late July to early August, though weather and glacier conditions can vary. It’s smart to set a date range and choose the best day closer to the time.
You can do the climb in 2, 3 or more days. The slower you go, the better your acclimatisation—and the greater your chances of success.
