Hervé Barmasse
Positioning of the Gran Sasso’s ascent
In March 2025, one of the most accomplished mountaineer of his generation, Hervé Barmasse, completed the first complete enchainment and traverse of all the main peaks of the Gran Sasso d’Italia massif, alone and in winter.Barmasse’s feat, which saw him tackle 67 kilometers of climbing 7,200 meters in two days with skis and crampons, is proof that the Apennines themselves can represent a true mountaineering milestone.
ABC was tasked with raising the profile of the feat both locally and nationally, bringing the story of the experience to a broader audience, extending from vertical mountain media to local newspapers, regional and national TV channels, as well as travel and family publications.
The drafting and sending of a press release and targeted media relations efforts, including interviews and in-depth features, brought significant visibility at the local and national levels.
