WHY THIS HIKE

Il Sentiero delle Espressioni

Un’escursione imperdibile lungo un sentiero originale e adatto a tutti, che unisce il fascino della natura alla creatività dell’arte. Il Sentiero delle Espressioni si snoda tra boschi e prati, arricchito da sculture in legno scolpite da artisti locali, rendendo il cammino un’esperienza sorprendente e coinvolgente. L’itinerario ci porterà fino al Rifugio Prabello, dove potremo goderci una meritata sosta per il pranzo con una vista spettacolare sulle montagne comasche, lecchesi, svizzere e sul Sasso Gordona. Ideale per chi cerca un’escursione senza difficoltà e di media lunghezza, ma ricca di emozioni, perfetta anche per chi, se allenato, si avvicina per la prima volta al mondo della montagna!

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

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Martina, a Guiddy coordinator — though everyone calls me Lamartucci, yes, exactly that. I'm a biologist and naturalist in love with nature in all its forms: a biologist by training, an explorer by passion. I like sharing it, telling it and letting the people walking with me live it, step by step. My favourite outings? The panoramic, good and long ones, where you eat up the kilometres among smiles, breathtaking landscapes and that contagious joy only a day in nature can give you. Walking with me means enjoying the day, eating well, laughing a lot and going home with your batteries full of endorphins. And along the way there are plenty of little nature briefings on flora, fauna and the views around us. Backpack ready? Mine is. 🌞 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
