Gran Paradiso massif

The Gran Paradiso massif (Italian: Massiccio del Gran Paradiso; French: Massif du Grand-Paradis) is a massif in the Italian Alps, in the regions of Aosta Valley and Piedmont.

The Gran Paradiso National Park covers approximately the western half of the massif, while the Mont Avic Natural Park covers the Champdepraz valley.

The massif is limited to the west and south (Orco) by the Graian Alps, and to the north (Dora Baltea) by the Pennine Alps.

The massif is made up mainly of crystalline rocks and schists.
