WHY THIS HIKE

Snowshoeing to Passo Predelp

In the most authentic heart of Lucomagno, this winter snowshoe hike from Pian Casaccia is a perfect experience for Guidders looking for a panoramic trek away from crowded routes. We move among snowy plateaus, alpine channels, and spectacular views of Pizzo del Sole and the Medel massif, in one of the most evocative corners of Canton Ticino, on the border with Graubünden.

The experience

A snowshoe excursion that combines unspoiled nature, silence, and great alpine panoramas: ideal for those who want to experience the mountains in winter in an authentic way.

High mountain winter environment, wild and sparsely populated

If you are looking for a snowshoe hike that is different from the usual, away from the crowds and truly immersive, this is the right itinerary. With the Guidders, experience Lucomagno in its authentic version, sharing effort, panoramas, and satisfaction.

Join the next outing and book your place: the mountains in winter are even more beautiful when experienced together ❄️

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

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Roberto, a mid-mountain guide: someone raised among trails, cows and a great deal of curiosity. I've been walking in the mountains since my father decided to take us all "up" together. I'd only just learned to stand up on flat ground, but it was among ridges, woods and stones that I really learned to walk. An architect by training, I've always watched how people inhabit the mountains: huts, summer pastures, traces of lives suspended between nature and human ingenuity. For over ten years I've taken hikers through valleys, summits and forgotten alpine pastures, entering nature with every sense to catch all of it. That's my mountain: constant searching, genuine experiences, care for safety and real wellbeing. A whirl of days outdoors that never ends, and that I don't want to end. 🌄 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
