At an elevation of 3,220 m (10,564 ft.), and with a prominence of 340 m (1,115 ft.), Monte Gavia forms part of the Southern Rhaetian Alps. It is situated close to the city of Sondrio, in the Lombardy region of Italy.
Hiking Monte Gavia consists of two parts. The hike starts on a military mule track that is well-maintained and then proceeds to the second part that is more demanding, with crags and steep inclines. Visitors would do well to have a bit of prior climbing experience for the second half. However, no sophisticated climbing equipment is required; a pair of good walking shoes and a helmet is sufficient.
The nearest mountain hut is Rifugio Bonetta located 1 621m/5 317ft SE of the summit.
