WHY THIS HIKE

The Bivacco Suretta loop

Non lamentarti, non imprecare mentre procedi a fatica sotto il sole rovente in un gigantesco cimitero di enormi massi su un sentiero pressoché inesistente. Non lamentarti e non imprecare mai, lui si nutre del tuo sconforto e della tua rabbia.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

Un ampio anello ad alta quota che offre una varietà di panorami e ambienti diversi: il lago Montespluga, il passo dello Spluga, due splendidi laghetti alpini, l'inospitale ghiacciaio del Suretta e l'omonino bivacco e il ritorno a Montespluga tra ruscelli, prati verdi e vacche che pascolano placidamente.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Davide, an environmental hiking guide. I believe every trail is a chance to live an adventure, discover new places and find your way back to nature and to yourself. You don't need the highest summit: you need to get out and look around. I love taking people to hidden corners, surprising views and routes off the usual list, where every step gives you something new and the day becomes something you remember. It's the part of this job that gets me up early happily. If you feel like exploring, sharing a passion for the mountains and living real days out with the Guidders, we understand each other. 🥾🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
