WHY THIS HIKE

The majestic Mount Cornizzolo

An excursion that combines nature, spectacular views, and physical exertion on easily accessible paths.

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

The experience

We start from the parking lot near Lake Segrino and take the CAI path that goes up the southern slope of Cornizzolo. The route is initially easy and develops on a cart road, with a sometimes challenging slope.

The path then presents numerous hairpin bends that allow for regular progression; with some more challenging crossings in the woods.

Around 1,000 m above sea level, we gradually emerge from the woods. The vegetation thins out, and meadows and clearings appear, with wide panoramic views of Brianza, Lake Pusiano, and, on clear days, the Po Valley.

The last stretch follows a wide, grassy ridge with no technical difficulties, characterized by wide open spaces and an excellent panoramic point on the Grigne, the Resegone, and the entire Larian Triangle.

Depending on the ground conditions, it will be established which route to take in the final part and whether to reach the top of Cornizzolo (1,241 m) or go directly to the SEC Marisa Consigliere refuge.

Lunch is planned at the refuge

or alternatively packed (please indicate at the time of registration)

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Luca, an AIGAE environmental hiking guide, a lifelong nature lover — and lucky enough to live right next to it every day. In my professional life I've worked for years in safety and the environment, but I felt the need to bring skills and passion together into something more involving: that's how this adventure started. Today I take groups out to discover nature with particular attention to sustainability, wellbeing and the spirit of the group. I believe in hiking that's good for the body, good for the mind and builds new connections: those three go together more often than people think. Let's enjoy ourselves and learn to look at the world around us with new eyes. 🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
