WHY THIS HIKE
The Conca dei Campelli when it is all white
A spectacular winter hike in the heart of Val di Scalve, discovering the Conca dei Campelli, one of the most captivating corners of the so-called Scalve Dolomites. In winter the basin changes completely: white fills the pastures and the dolomite walls stand out even more sharply.

The experience
Starting just above Schilpario, near the cross-country ski tracks, the trail heads straight into the woods and climbs steadily among firs and larches. The ascent is gradual and lets you ease into the winter setting.
From Passo dei Campelli, a viewpoint straddling Val di Scalve and Val Camonica, we climb Monte Campioncino and then drop to Rifugio Campione (1,945 m) for lunch. Fourteen kilometres and 1,000 metres of ascent.
This is an intermediate hike: a thousand metres of ascent over fourteen kilometres. In winter the ground can be snowy or icy: microspikes recommended and high boots. Parking at the Fondi di Schilpario charges a fee.
Come with the Guidders: book your place and let's climb to the Campelli.

Easy
Perfect for those who want to enjoy nature without too much effort. Short, well-marked trails with gentle slopes. No technical difficulties, just a desire to walk, breathe in the fresh air, and share the day with a group.
Ideal for: Beginners, families, those who want to take their first steps in trekking.
Easy Plus
A little faster pace, but still accessible. Slightly longer routes or with a few more hills, requiring some walking experience. The terrain is always easy and safe.
Ideal for: Those who walk regularly and want to challenge themselves a little.
Intermediate
Here we enter the world of true trekking. Steeper climbs, stretches on uneven or longer trails that require stamina. The physical effort is medium to high, and the fatigue is noticeable... but so is the satisfaction!
Ideal for: Those who already have experience and a good level of physical fitness.
Intermediate Plus — this outing
When the mountains begin to take their toll. More challenging routes in terms of gradient or duration, with technical sections or uneven terrain. Even a medium elevation gain can be tough if concentrated in just a few kilometers
Ideal for: Trained hikers, accustomed to walking on mountain paths
Difficult
Level suitable for experienced hikers with excellent stamina and surefootedness. The physical challenge is high, and there may be steep sections or possible exposure, which is always noted in the hike description. Perfect for those who enjoy pushing their limits and conquering significant peaks.
Ideal for: Those who already have experience in an Alpine environment and want to challenge themselves.
Difficult Plus
Only for true Guidders with their Wild Spirit at its peak Long routes, significant elevation gain (over 1,100 m), and technical or exposed terrain. Excellent physical preparation, sure-footedness, and the ability to manage fatigue at high altitude are required.
Ideal for: Highly trained and experienced hikers in the mountains.

Il passo dei Campelli in invernale é spettacolare....ma lungo! Preparatevi a chiedervi "ma quando si arriva?". Il pranzo al rifugio é però un'ottima ricompensa e l'intero percorso nella neve con i ramponcini é una bella scelta per chi vuole provare un'uscita intermedia in inverno!
