WHY THIS HIKE

The Pizzo di Corzene loop below the Presolana

A loop at the foot of the queen of the Orobie.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from the Passo della Presolana and climb to Rifugio Carlo Medici ai Cassinelli, with the north wall of the Presolana dominating everything. We carry on to the Bivacco Città di Clusone and the Cappella Savina, then to the striking Grotta dei Pagani, and from there to Pizzo di Corzene, where the view opens across the whole valley. Every step brings a different scene: here the mountain has a story to tell as well.

5 reasons to come - the north wall of the Presolana, always in front of you - the Grotta dei Pagani, a landmark of the Lombard mountains - Rifugio Cassinelli and the Bivacco Città di Clusone - the summit of Pizzo di Corzene - a loop whose scenery keeps changing

Who it suits A complete route that asks for commitment: good fitness and a sure step on rocky ground.

The queen of the Orobie, seen up close: come with the Guidders.
