WHY THIS HIKE

Sunset Hike to Monte Due Mani and the Locatelli Bivouac from Lecco: 1,000 m of Elevation Gain

A thousand metres of climbing, and sunset at the top.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from Maggio di Cremeno, in the Valsassina, and follow the Grignoni path through the woods as the afternoon light filters between the trees. The climb is not a gentle one, and that is exactly what makes it: you gain height little by little, through ever-wider glimpses, up to the final pull onto the summit of Monte Due Mani. Up there, with the Locatelli bivouac a step away, we sit and wait for the sunset as the Lecco mountains change colour.

5 reasons to come - sunset from the summit of Monte Due Mani - the Locatelli bivouac right below the top - the Grignoni path through the woods - a thousand metres of climbing, every one of them earned - the Lecco mountains catching fire in the evening

Who it suits A demanding, continuous climb: you need good fitness and a taste for coming back by head torch.

Hard work, yes, but with a grin: come and try it with the Guidders.

HOW TO GET THERE
17:30PARKING
Hike departs from Maggio di Cremeno.
Grignoni Trail (No. 2)
20:30SUMMIT
Summit of Monte Due Mani (5,466 ft)
The final stretch is what makes all the difference: short, steep, and exhilarating. We climb at a steady pace, aiming for the summit at just the right moment. At the top, the sun sets and unveils a breathtaking 360° panorama that rewards every bit of effort: it’s the most beautiful dawn in Valsassina. Coffee and an aperitif at the summit
22:30RETURN
Return Trip
Night light sets the ridge aglow, turning the return hike into one of the most spectacular moments of the trek. We pass by Zucco di Desio (1,655 m), descend toward Monte Tabor, and then head back into the forest that leads us to Maggio, completing a full loop that is scenic, rewarding, and unforgettable.

How do you get to Maggio? By carpooling.

You say so when booking, then you get organised in the Telegram group. Contacts and costs are agreed between you: a seat isn't guaranteed.
