WHY THIS HIKE

From Erve to Capanna Monza on the Resegone

A silent wood, and a historic hut above Erve.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from the village of Erve, step into the silence of the woods and gain height steadily on the flank of the Resegone. Along the climb we pass the San Carlo spring, a detail that gives the whole route its identity, then the path leads to Capanna Monza, a historic and instantly recognisable objective for anyone who walks the mountains above Lecco. You do not come here only to reach the hut: you come for the path, which is worth as much as the destination.

5 reasons to come - Capanna Monza, a historic Resegone hut - the San Carlo spring along the climb - the silent woods above Erve - a continuous climb that satisfies - the Resegone's quieter flank, away from the usual route

Who it suits A continuous woodland climb with nothing technical: normal walking fitness is enough.

The real nature of the Lecco mountains: come and walk it with the Guidders.

HOW TO GET THERE
09:00MEETING
Starting from Erve
We start from Erve, a small village nestled at the foot of Mount Resegone, in a setting that's already strikingly beautiful and quintessential "Lecco mountain country." The first few minutes are a gentle introduction, gradually leaving the village behind and joining the trail as it enters the woods. It's a mellow start, perfect for finding your rhythm without burning out too quickly.
10:15WATER
Ascend through the forest and pass by the San Carlo Spring.
The trek really comes alive now, with one of the most beautiful stretches of the route: a dense forest, a well-marked trail, and a shady environment, which is especially pleasant in the shoulder seasons and summer. Passing by the San Carlo Spring provides a lovely natural rest stop and adds even more character to the hike.
11:30MOUNTAIN HUT
Monza Hut
As you gain altitude, the trail's character begins to shift: the woods open up intermittently, the climb becomes a little more challenging, and you enter the most "mountainous" section of the route. This is the stretch that truly builds towards the summit and makes the ascent so rewarding. Reaching Capanna Monza is the most gratifying moment of the trek. Here, you can stop, recover, breathe in the mountain air, and fully savor the feeling of a climb well done.
14:30RETURN
Back to Erve
After a break, we'll head back to Erve along the same trail, wrapping up a perfectly balanced and wonderful day.

How do you get to Erve? 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.
