WHY THIS HIKE

Popera valley in the Comelico Dolomites

In this itinerary, we will explore a small, secret gem of the Sesto and Comelico Dolomites: the Popera Valley, uncrowded and with an authentic alpine environment. Just a few kilometers from the Tre Cime di Lavaredo but incredibly quiet and wild, this corner of the Dolomites will allow us to experience a more pristine and silent mountain.

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

The experience

Ancient retreating glaciers, alpine lakes, green meadows, and vertical peaks: all the Dolomite environments in a single loop.

We will find remains of the Great War and stop at panoramic refuges.

I'm Giacomo, a mid-mountain leader registered with the Collegio Guide Alpine. I was born and raised among the peaks of the Val d'Ossola and the views of Lake Maggiore, and I turned my passion for the mountains into a profession. Over the last 10 years I've travelled through New Zealand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Corsica, Madeira and Spain, and of course along the trails of the Alpine arc and the Apennines, often looking for that genuine connection with wild nature. I'll take you to find real places far from mass tourism: from the hidden trails of the Val d'Ossola and Lake Maggiore to the iconic Dolomites, with routes tailored to every level. My mission? To let you experience the mountains as something that changes you: every step is a story, every view a memory that stays. 🎒 See you on the trails!
