WHY THIS HIKE
Lecco's mountain, climbed from the Bergamo side
If Lecco has a heart, it is carved into the jagged profile of the Resegone. And if one trail reaches it with charm and a touch of quiet poetry, it is the one from Brumano, on the Bergamo side of Val Imagna: far less busy than the Lecco routes, and all the better for it.

The experience
The hike leads through spectacular ridges and green passages, with the scent of woodland in the first part and the view opening as we climb. The goal is Punta Cermenati, at 1,875 metres, where Rifugio Azzoni stands: from up there the whole lake is in sight.
It is 10 kilometres and 900 metres of ascent over six hours. A demanding but accessible trek, in a quieter corner of a mountain everyone knows.
This is an intermediate hike: 900 metres of ascent in six hours, with steep sections and some ridge walking where a sure step is needed. There are no equipped passages. Bring boots with a good sole, water and a windproof jacket: the ridge is almost always breezy.
Come with the Guidders: book your place and let's climb the Resegone.

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 — this outing
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
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.
