WHY THIS TREK

A Ferragosto night on the Grignetta

Shooting stars, seen from the summit.

Group chat before departure
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

Day 1. We set off with the Guidders from the Piani dei Resinelli and climb the famous Cermenati path, among the celebrated spires of the Grigna, to the summit cross and the Bivacco Ferrario. Up there we wait for sunset, eat together and then stay with our heads tipped back: it is the night of the shooting stars, and from here you see them as in few other places.

Day 2. We wake to sunrise on the spires, have breakfast and head down.

5 reasons to come - the August night spent on the summit of the Grignetta - shooting stars seen from one of the finest balconies in the Alps - the Bivacco Ferrario right below the cross - the Cermenati path among the spires - sunset and sunrise from the same spot

Who it suits A demanding climb with rock sections: good fitness, a sure step and a steady head.

A night that leaves its mark: set off with the Guidders.
