WHY THIS HIKE

The summit of Grem in the Orobie

Wide ridgelines and open views, along the crest of the Orobie.

Group chat a couple of days before

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from the Passo di Zambla, a favoured access point for many outings in the area, and climb towards Cima di Grem: not among the highest, but among the most significant summits of the group south of the Arera-Vaccaro chain. The country is genuine, made of wide ridgelines and open views, set between the upper Val Parina, the Val Dossana and the Valle del Riso. Along the way we pass the Bivacco Mistri.

5 reasons to come - Cima di Grem and its open ridgelines - the Bivacco Mistri along the route - the view across Val Parina, Val Dossana and Valle del Riso - a rarely visited mountain group - an easy start from the Passo di Zambla

Who it suits A climb on ridgelines and mountain paths: normal walking fitness and a sure step.

A summit that matters more than it measures: come with the Guidders.

900 m D+ · 11 km · 6 h

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

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.

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.
