WHY THIS HIKE

San Calimero, a balcony over Valsassina

Our route will introduce you to one of the most scenic areas of Valsassina. We will reach the iconic church of San Calimero with its unmistakable red roof. From the natural balcony on the slopes of the Northern Grigna on which it rests, we will admire the main peaks of the valley. We will cross the coast of Crevec, a fascinating and little-known area, rich in woods and pastures. On the way back, we will pass by the Riva refuge to enjoy a pleasant stop before returning to the starting point.

Hi Guidders! I'm Paolo, a mid-mountain leader with the Collegio delle Guide Alpine of Lombardy. Before being a professional, I've always been a great enthusiast for the mountains, their landscapes and their history — and that's the right order, because the second thing grows out of the first. My working area runs across the provinces of Lecco, Como, Sondrio and Varese, with a specialisation around Lecco and the upper part of the lake: trails I know in every season and at every hour. I'd like to share that passion by taking you out on hikes of varying difficulty, rich in information about the places we visit together. 🥾 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
