Parco PinetaTrekking

A circular trek starting from Mozzate, in the province of Como, taking Guidders through the woodlands of Parco Pineta and the hills of Bocca di Valli, all the way to the Proverbio area. The route follows hiking trails and forest tracks, with generally easy-going terrain but also some damp sections, roots, and a few spots that require sure footing, especially after rain. Lunch break will be in an Agriturismo, with fixed menu at the cost of 30 euro (not included in the price of the trekking). This hike is ideal for anyone looking for real nature close to the city: steady ups and downs, a wooded valley setting, and open views across the rolling hills between Lombardy and Canton Ticino. What makes it special is the shared pace, the guidance of the Guidders team, and an itinerary that feels authentic, rewarding, and refreshingly off the beaten path. 5 reasons to join - varied circular route that never feels repetitive - the forests of Parco Pineta - an accessible yet dynamic trail - views over the surrounding hills - a shared community experience with Guidders What makes this hike unique is the blend of urban convenience and total immersion in nature: a genuine trek, without a mountain hut or an iconic summit, but with exactly the right atmosphere to truly switch off. Indicative details.
