WHY THIS HIKE

Mount Sparavera over Lake Endine

A view over Lake Endine, and a museum inside a hut.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders and climb towards Monte Sparavera, which rises above Lake Endine: the path winds through woods and green meadows, in quiet moments surrounded by nature. From the summit the view over the lake and the surrounding mountains is one you look at for a long time. The heart of the day, besides the top, is Rifugio Malga Lunga, with its museum of the fallen: there we enjoy a traditional mountain lunch.

5 reasons to come - the view over Lake Endine from the summit - Rifugio Malga Lunga and its traditional lunch - the museum of the fallen, inside the hut - woods and green meadows along the whole route - a calm day, surrounded by nature

Who it suits A climb on well-marked paths with nothing technical: fine even if you do not walk much.

Nature, views and real flavours: come with the Guidders.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Francesco, a UIMLA International Mountain Leader and a mid-mountain leader registered with the Collegio Guide Alpine Lombardia. I'm also a yoga teacher, and I love bringing mindful movement together with deep contact with nature: between trails and breath, the mountains are my element. For me the mountains are pure joy, to be lived in every aspect and shared with anyone who wants to explore, listen and be amazed. Every outing is a chance to find balance, wonder and — very often — new friendships. I hope to meet you soon. 🧘 🌲 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
