Sentiero dei Cirmoli: autumn hike to San Giacomo, Monte Baldo
Cirmoli: autumn woods trek
Five hundred cirmolo pines planted by one man, in a forest now blazing with autumn colors.
The experience
We set off with the Guidders from San Giacomo, on Monte Baldo, and tackle the steepest stretch right away: the first kilometer climbs hard, then the pace eases among beeches and cirmolo pines glowing gold in this season. The route is a loop, and the climb takes us to 1767 meters before we descend on different slopes, with views opening onto Monte Altissimo. Along the way we pass near the Rifugio Graziani at Bocca del Creer, 1617 m — worth checking seasonal opening hours if you fancy a stop.
The trail's name comes from a real story: Augusto Girardelli, known as "the man of the cirmoli," planted five hundred of these pines in the late 1970s to reforest and protect the slope from avalanches. We're literally walking through his legacy.
5 reasons to join - the cirmolo forest in full autumn color - a loop that keeps changing, never dull - a real story behind every tree we pass - open views onto Monte Altissimo - warm afternoon light on the way down

Reviews
Percorso molto bello. Guida ottima, ci ha spiegato le piante locali, gli animali e anche qualche informazione sulle rocce.
Bellissimo giro anche se le condizioni meteo erano un po' avverse soprattutto grazie alla compagnia degli altri ragazzi e della guida Luca super simpatico e molto informato, un sacco di informazioni tecniche e naturalistiche dell'ambiente che ci ha circondato dando spunti di conversazione interessanti per tutta la giornata. Esperienza super positiva la consiglio a tutti, grazie Luca e ai compagni di viaggio
