WHY THIS HIKE

Pizzoccheri in Val Ravella

Giornata Geologia e Grassi saturi!

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

The experience

La passeggiata è solo una scusa per farci venire più fame... ma visto che il sentiero è necessario per arrivare al piatto, ne approfitteremo per saziare anche la nostra fame di conoscenza.

Le montagne sono sempre esistite? Quali forze terrene, ultraterrene e divine hanno dato forma ai Corni di Canzo e perché si chiamano corni?? Cercheremo indizi e risposte lungo il torrente Ravella, fino all'agriturismo Terz'Alpe dove finalmente verrà soddisfatta anche la fame del corpo.

Affronteremo la discesa appesantiti e soddisfatti attraverso il suggestivo sentiero dello Spirito del Bosco, per poi tornare al parcheggio nel pomeriggio.

Un'escursione semplice con dislivelli moderati e pendenze morbide, non adatta a chi è perennemente a dieta!!

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Anna, an environmental hiking guide and a repentant ex-office worker. I run group hikes in Lombardy, mainly in the provinces of Lecco, Como and Sondrio, and the reason is always the same: to spread as widely as I can that sense of wonder towards nature and towards this precious, beautiful planet of ours. What I enjoy most is watching someone enjoy a view without a worry in their head and go home having learned something new. It happens often — and it happens better if there's one of my home-made biscuits to nibble along the way. 🍪 Join one of my hikes and see for yourself. See you in the mountains, Guidders!
