WHY THIS HIKE

A thousand metres of climbing, for those who want to feel it

Some hikes test you from the first steps: Monte Due Mani from Maggio di Cremeno, in Valsassina, is one of them. It is the longest and most demanding of the routes to this summit, and those who choose it do so on purpose.

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We follow the Sentiero dei Grignoni (no. 2) through woodland, firm climbs and views opening ever wider over the Lecco mountains. At the Bocchetta di Desio the panorama opens over Valsassina and the summit cross of Due Mani starts to appear ahead. The last stretch is the most intense but also the finest, with the ridge leading to the top at 1,666 metres.

The return is a full loop: we pass Zucco di Desio (1,655 m), drop towards Monte Tabor and then re-enter the woods that bring us back to Maggio. Ten kilometres, 1,000 metres of ascent, seven hours on the move.

This is an intermediate hike but physically demanding: a thousand metres of ascent in seven hours, with steep sections and ridge walking where a sure step is needed. Trained legs required. Bring boots, poles, plenty of water and a packed lunch.

Come with the Guidders: book your place and let's climb Due Mani.

HOW TO GET THERE
A
09:00MEETING
Meeting at Maggio di Cremeno
We meet the Guidders in Maggio di Cremeno (LC), in Valsassina, where we leave the cars and take the Sentiero dei Grignoni (no. 2). It is a demanding day, so we set a steady pace. The exact time is shared in the outing's Telegram group.
B
12:30SUMMIT
On the summit of Monte Due Mani (1,666 m)
After the woods and the firm climbs we reach the Bocchetta di Desio, where the view opens over Valsassina. The last stretch is short, steep and decisive: we climb steadily to the summit cross, with a 360-degree view that repays all the effort. Packed lunch at the top.
C
16:00RETURN
Loop back via Zucco di Desio and Monte Tabor
We descend past Zucco di Desio (1,655 m) and continue towards Monte Tabor, with the panoramic ridge alongside for much of the way down. Then we re-enter the woods that bring us back to Maggio, closing a full loop.

How do you get to Maggio? By carpooling.

You say so when booking, then you get organised in the Telegram group. Contacts and costs are agreed between you: a seat isn't guaranteed.
