WHY THIS HIKE

Snowshoeing at Passo Dordona

An ancient pass, reached on snowshoes.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from Foppolo and climb towards the Passo Dordona, an old crossing between the Val Brembana and the Valtellina. The route alternates snowy woods, wide basins and panoramic stretches, with views that open gradually onto the surrounding peaks. Walking here means following the tracks of merchants and travellers of the past, accompanied today only by the muffled sound of snow. Back down, lunch together in Foppolo.

5 reasons to come - the Passo Dordona, a historic crossing between two valleys - wide basins and snow-covered woods - the traces of an ancient route, under snow - the view opening as you climb - lunch together on the way back

Who it suits A steady snowshoe climb: normal walking fitness and winter kit are needed.

History, silence and wide views: 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
