WHY THIS HIKE

Rifugio Olmo below the Presolana

A loop at the foot of the Presolana, between woods and scree.

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

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from Rusio, in the heart of the Valzurio, on a loop linking Rifugio Olmo with the curious Signore dei Ghiaioni. We walk through woods, pastures and scree at the foot of the Presolana, with the view changing at every step: a complete, varied outing where each stretch has a character of its own.

5 reasons to come - Rifugio Olmo, at the foot of the Presolana - the Signore dei Ghiaioni, singular and photogenic - the Valzurio, a silent and genuine valley - the shift from woodland to scree - a varied loop that repeats nothing

Who it suits A loop with scree sections: normal walking fitness and a sure step.

A complete circuit below the Queen: come with the Guidders.
