WHY THIS TREK

Monte Baldo in two days

A trek on Monte Baldo that is much more than just a simple hike: it's a real high-altitude ride between panoramic ridges, rocky passages and continuous views of Lake Garda, among the most spectacular in Northern Italy. Starting from the Malcesine Monte Baldo cable car, the Guidders immediately get to the heart of the matter with a ridge route that offers open views of the lake, Prealps and plains.

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

The route touches some of the most iconic peaks of the massif, such as Cima Pettorina, Cima Valdritta (the highest peak of Baldo) and the Cima Telegrafo area, alternating technical sections and smoother sections. The first day ends with a panoramic night at the Rifugio Chierego, perfectly positioned above Lake Garda.

The second day changes the atmosphere: from the open ridges you descend through pastures and centuries-old beech woods to Prada Alta, completing a varied, complete and incredibly rewarding experience.

A perfect trek for Guidders who want to experience the mountains in an active, technical and panoramic way, with the right mix of challenge and beauty.

If you are looking for a trek that combines incredible views, real ridges and team spirit, this is the right time to leave.

Join the Guidders and experience Monte Baldo as it should be: step by step, peak after peak, sunset after sunset.

Book your place and come and conquer the ridges of Lake Garda with us.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Marta, a mid-mountain leader: from Milan originally, but adopted by Lake Garda. I've lived by the lake for years, a wonderful place that lets me be in touch with nature and with the mountains I love every single day. After a degree in Biological Sciences and many years as a videomaker in the outdoor world, telling stories of mountains and adventures in pictures, I realised something: I didn't want only to tell it any more, I wanted to live it and share it properly with people. Today I take hikers out to find panoramic trails, genuine places and corners of nature that move you. When I'm not on the trails you'll find me climbing, ski mountaineering and mountaineering: the mountains are a way of life for me, in all their forms. Come out with me and you'll find a well-prepared guide, but above all an adventure companion. 🏔️ See you in the mountains, Guidders!
