Grignone Experience at the Brioschi Refuge
Guiddy Difficulty Levels
Difficult Plus
Description
From the valley floor to the summit, in one go.
Climbing the Grignone from Balisio means testing your legs and your lungs, but also enjoying one of the widest panoramas in the Lombard Prealps. We set off on foot from the village and cross woods, pastures and high rock. After the long wooded stretch we reach Rifugio Antonietta al Pialeral, a rest stop with a fine view of its own; from there the real climb to the Northern Grigna begins along the normal route, up to Rifugio Brioschi, set right on the top. Up there the panorama opens wide: Monte Rosa, the Disgrazia, the Valtellina, the Apennines, the Resegone and Lake Como in a single glance.
5 reasons to come
- the Grignone summit and Rifugio Brioschi
- the panorama from Monte Rosa to the Apennines
- the stop at Rifugio Antonietta al Pialeral
- woods, pastures and rock in one route
- the satisfaction of climbing it from the valley floor
Who it suits
A long, demanding climb: excellent fitness and mountain habit are needed.
A real challenge: come and take it on with the Guidders.

Guide
Beniamino
Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Beniamino, Ben to everyone, a mid-mountain leader and cycle touring guide. Becoming a guide was the finish line of a path that started over ten years ago in the outdoor world: a big passion that turned into my profession. Over the years I've built experience across specialist shops, events and collaborations with major brands in the sector, and I learned how much preparation, safety and attention to people matter. I love the mountains in every form, but it's among ridges, walls and big views that I really feel at home. Every outing is a chance to experience nature authentically, share emotions and build memories that last. If you fancy exploring new trails with the Guidders, we're off. 🥾🚵 See you in the mountains, Guidders!

Da un sacco di tempo ci tenevo ad andare in vetta al Grignone e a misurarmi con i 1600m di dislivello. Andarci con Guiddy è stata la scelta giusta, la giornata è stata stupenda, l'esperienza bellissima e l'emozione di arrivare in vetta dopo la fatica è stata impagabile.
