Montecampione Under the Stars: Scenic Snowshoe Hike and Mountain Hut Dinner

An evening of snow, head torches and dinner in a mountain hut.

We set off with the Guidders from Montecampione, in the heart of the Brescia pre-Alps, as daylight starts giving way to evening. Snowshoes on, we follow the snowy ridge towards Rifugio Dosso Rotondo, by way of Monte Splaza. Step after step the resort lights fall behind: around us only snow, wide open spaces and views across the Brescia mountains, while the sky changes colour and the head torches come on. At the hut we take everything off, step into the warmth and sit down to dinner all together. Then back onto the snow for the return, this time in full darkness.

5 reasons to come
- the snowy ridge at sunset, with the Brescia mountains all around
- dinner in the hut, everyone at the same table
- the walk back in the dark, head torches lit
- the sky changing colour above the snow
- an evening unlike any daytime outing

Who it suits
An easy route along a ridge: normal walking fitness is enough, even if it is your first time on snowshoes.

Some evenings are worth a whole day: come and live one with the Guidders.
