WHY THIS HIKE

Rifugio Rosalba from Mandello

Unisciti a noi per un'avventura unica verso il Rifugio Rosalba, situato a 1730 metri di altitudine, alla base della maestosa cresta Segantini sulla Grigna Meridionale, conosciuta come Grignetta. Questo angolo incantevole si trova tra la val Monastero e la val Scarettone, immerso nelle splendide Prealpi Orobie. Partiremo insieme dalla suggestiva frazione di Rongio, nel comune di Mandello, per affrontare un percorso affascinante e meno battuto. Invece del solito sentiero delle Foppe, ci avventureremo lungo il sentiero attrezzato 13b (EE), che ci porterà attraverso panorami mozzafiato. Attraverseremo luoghi incantevoli come lo Zucco di Manavello, lo Zucco di Portorella e lo Zucco di Pertusio, dove potremo ammirare la bellezza naturale che ci circonda. La salita, pur presentando qualche catena e tratti leggermente esposti, non presenta difficoltà eccessive. Una volta raggiunto il Rifugio Rosalba, ci fermeremo per gustare piatti tipici della tradizione montana, circondati da un panorama che toglie il fiato. Per il ritorno, scenderemo lungo il più semplice sentiero n. 12 (E), passando per i Colonghelli, godendo di un'ulteriore prospettiva sulla bellezza del nostro percorso.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Paolo, a mid-mountain leader registered with the Collegio Regionale Guide Alpine Lombardia. With a degree in engineering, I live in Lecco, where I was born and raised on the slopes of Monte Resegone. I've always loved my city, squeezed between the lake and the mountains, for the landscapes it offers from every angle: from the top of its peaks or from the shore. Over the years, in my free time, I've taken up plenty of outdoor activities — trekking, cycling, canoeing, skiing — and raced in trail running and skyrunning events. A great passion for nature and for my own patch is what pushed me into guiding: sharing a love for the trails, the summits and the landscapes around Lecco is the part that gives me most satisfaction. ⛰ See you in the mountains, Guidders!
