WHY THIS HIKE

Altopiano del Sole Trek

Autumn transforms the Altopiano del Sole into a picture of warm colors. Fir and larch woods glowing gold, afternoon light caressing the peaks: it's the perfect time to set off.

Group chat a couple of days before

Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We start from Borno, a charming village nestled on the green plateau. A comfortable mule track leads us up through lush woods to the basin of Val di Lova and its alpine lake, a breathtaking sheet of water. From there, the trail climbs steadily toward the Pizzo Camino pastures, growing ever more scenic, up to Rifugio Laeng, perfect for a break with a view of the limestone walls. The loop continues around Monte Arano, amid stunning views, before descending back toward Lova and returning to Borno through the valley-floor woods.

Why join us: - Autumn foliage at its peak - An alpine lake that looks painted - Views of Pizzo Camino and Monte Arano - A pace suited for everyone, with a loop return

Join the Guidders: this is an adventure to experience together, not to watch from afar.

How hard is it, really

960 m D+ · 13 km · 8 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.

We'll email you when they have a new outing on the calendar.

Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Matteo, a Mountain Hiking Guide (AMM). I love nature and astronomy, but honestly, I love sharing them with others even more. Since getting my AMM qualification, this has been my job: guiding people through nature, on foot or by bike. I also carry a passion for the night sky with me. With my outreach association, I run astronomy evenings, another way of looking at the mountains, this time from below looking up. What I love most is seeing people's faces the first time they discover a trail, a view or a constellation. I don't promise epic feats, just a good pace, a curious eye and a real love for telling the story of what's around us. Come with me and you'll go home with tired legs and eyes full of new things. 🏔️ See you in the mountains, Guidders!
