WHY THIS HIKE
By moonlight towards Casa Canada
Ti proponiamo una serata diversa in natura, per dar vita ai tuoi sensi, un’uscita al crepuscolo che si concluderà nella notte. Ci immergeremo in una delle valli del Pinerolese e partendo da una piccola e viva borgata, lasceremo il rumore della città per ascoltare il silenzio della notte, rotto solo dai rumori degli abitanti del bosco. Perché lo sai che il bosco di notte è pieno di vita! Il sentiero delle carbonaie ti racconterà la storia della valle e la loro importanza nel passato. La nostra metà, il Rifugio Canada, simbolo di sostenibilità e di fratellanza tra nazioni ci accoglierà con un invitante menu. Ma non è tutto! Prima del trekking faremo visita a dei giovanissimi margari conosciuti qualche anno fa in Val Soana con le loro bestie ed da subito ce ne siamo innamorati per la loro semplicità. Ci sarà ovviamente, la possibilità di acquistare un pezzo di formaggio a Km zero.

Easy — this outing
Perfect for those who want to enjoy nature without too much effort. Short, well-marked trails with gentle slopes. No technical difficulties, just a desire to walk, breathe in the fresh air, and share the day with a group.
Ideal for: Beginners, families, those who want to take their first steps in trekking.
Easy Plus
A little faster pace, but still accessible. Slightly longer routes or with a few more hills, requiring some walking experience. The terrain is always easy and safe.
Ideal for: Those who walk regularly and want to challenge themselves a little.
Intermediate
Here we enter the world of true trekking. Steeper climbs, stretches on uneven or longer trails that require stamina. The physical effort is medium to high, and the fatigue is noticeable... but so is the satisfaction!
Ideal for: Those who already have experience and a good level of physical fitness.
Intermediate Plus
When the mountains begin to take their toll. More challenging routes in terms of gradient or duration, with technical sections or uneven terrain. Even a medium elevation gain can be tough if concentrated in just a few kilometers
Ideal for: Trained hikers, accustomed to walking on mountain paths
Difficult
Level suitable for experienced hikers with excellent stamina and surefootedness. The physical challenge is high, and there may be steep sections or possible exposure, which is always noted in the hike description. Perfect for those who enjoy pushing their limits and conquering significant peaks.
Ideal for: Those who already have experience in an Alpine environment and want to challenge themselves.
Difficult Plus
Only for true Guidders with their Wild Spirit at its peak Long routes, significant elevation gain (over 1,100 m), and technical or exposed terrain. Excellent physical preparation, sure-footedness, and the ability to manage fatigue at high altitude are required.
Ideal for: Highly trained and experienced hikers in the mountains.
Exposure and exposed sections
NONE
No exposed sections reported on the route.

PINEROLO, Viale 17 Febbraio 1848, 10064 Pinerolo città metropolitana di Torino, Italia. The exact time is confirmed in the group chat. We meet a little earlier for a coffee, water and a toilet: after that, there are none until we get back.
To reach the car park is very simple, just follow signs for Pinerolo, a small town near the ring road that leads to and from Turin

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Massimiliano, an environmental hiking guide — and I'm not alone: with me there's Stefania, a guide too, and together we're a couple in love with mountains, nature and tradition. We walk looking for new trails and summits, but above all for experiences. We became guides for a simple reason: we like our passion being shared with other people, and on your own you share nothing. We're mostly out in Piedmont and the Aosta Valley, but our bags also hold Sardinia, Liguria, Trentino and Lombardy. The name of our social profiles says who we are: SECONDA VITA 51.20. Follow us if you like. 🥾 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
We only ask for feedback from people who were really there.
You'll be among the first to share your story.
