There's something magical about walking at night, side-by-side with your fellow Guidders, as the sky slowly begins to change color. The destination? The summit of Garitta Nuova (2,384 m), from which we will witness one of the most breathtaking sunrises in the Piedmontese Alps, with Monviso turning gold and the peaks awakening in an unreal silence.
Group chat a couple of days before
The experience
After experiencing this wonder, we will begin the descent along a picturesque loop trail that will lead us to the enchanting Luset Lakes, bodies of water hidden among the high-altitude pastures. Finally, after returning to Pian Munè, a genuine and well-deserved breakfast awaits us in the refuge, in front of a panorama that speaks of gratitude and shared achievements.
An intense, panoramic, and regenerating excursion, perfect for those who love the mountains lived with the heart, in good company.

Easy
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 — this outing
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!

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Samuele, an environmental hiking guide, a guide for the Rio Martino cave and a cycle touring guide. Among the mountains of the Valle Po, at the foot of Monviso, a passion was born that never went out: walking, exploring, breathing nature in deeply. At some point every step became a life choice, and from a degree in Natural Sciences I ended up here. Today I take out anyone who wants to rediscover this land with curious eyes and a free spirit. Whether it's a panoramic trek, an underground journey or a ride through surprising landscapes, the goal is always the same: real experiences, real feelings, and the sense of being part of something bigger. If you too love the kind of nature that smells of freedom and adventure, you're in the right place. 🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
We only ask for feedback from people who were really there.
After your outing, you can share your story too.
