WHY THIS HIKE

Giumello: top autumn loop

A loop hike through the colors of autumn, above Casargo.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from Alpe Giumello, right into a forest that turns gold and red in autumn. The route is a loop: an easy path leads in a few minutes to the San Ulderico Church, an 11th-century chapel with open views over Monte Legnone. From there the trail keeps rolling gently through the woods, until the liveliest part of the day arrives: a steeper climb toward the highest point of the loop, among rocks and wide-open views. Then we head back down, unhurried, in the warm afternoon light.

Along the high stretch the path narrows and opens up, with the drop beside you: nothing hard, just the beautiful feeling of being suspended among the peaks.

5 reasons to join - Casargo's favorite loop, perfect in autumn - the San Ulderico church with Legnone views - the forest changing color under our feet - one scenic stretch that takes your breath away - optional stop at Rifugio Capanna Vittoria

Who it's for Anyone up for a few hours of easy walking: no experience needed, just trained legs and a love for autumn in the mountains.

Come discover it with the Guidders: see you at Alpe Giumello!

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Federica, a mid-mountain leader and a lifelong lover of the mountains and of the outdoors. Outdoor sport has always been part of my life, including at competitive level, and in 2021 I chose to turn that passion into my profession. I love taking people out to discover the mountains, sharing the trails, the views and the feelings that make every outing special. The place I carry with me is the Triangolo Lariano: an area full of hidden corners, spectacular viewpoints and routes worth living, and close enough that there's no excuse. If you feel like breaking the routine and finding new trails with the Guidders, we understand each other. 🥾🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
