WHY THIS HIKE

Snowshoeing at Piani di Bobbio

A viewpoint on the snow, with five summits in front of you.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from the Piani di Bobbio cable car: after a short stretch near the lifts we take a path through the woods to a viewpoint offering a view of Pizzo dei Tre Signori, Monte Rosa, the Gran Paradiso, the Matterhorn and the Grigna. It is a snow outing suited to everyone, from first-timers to those already at ease; snowshoes can be hired on the spot. Then lunch at the hut.

5 reasons to come - the viewpoint with Monte Rosa, the Matterhorn and the Gran Paradiso - lunch at the hut - the snowy woods of the Piani di Bobbio - the cable car that takes you straight up - snowshoes for hire, if you do not have your own

Who it suits An outing suitable for everyone, first time on snow included.

Snow and views without complications: come with the Guidders.

VERTIGO RISK
WHAT YOU NEED BEFORE YOU GO
✓
BEFORE YOU GO
Dress in layers and set off in daylight: on snow you sweat going up and freeze at the stops. If you've never snowshoed, no experience needed, just legs for a long walk and an easy pace
✓
IN YOUR BACKPACK
Snowshoes and poles (rent them if you don't have them), waterproof boots, gaiters, gloves plus a spare pair, a beanie, sunglasses, a hot thermos and a snack. Always with you: a plaster, an antiseptic wipe and a small bag for rubbish
