WHAT YOU NEED BEFORE YOU GO
✓
BEFORE YOU GO
Train your legs with a loaded backpack in the weeks before: you've got 4 h a day for 2 days in a row ahead. Nights in mountain huts are short: those who go to bed early the night before start better
✓
IN YOUR BACKPACK
A light backpack for 2 days: a change of clothes, a sleeping bag liner for the hut, a water bottle and poles. Always with you: a plaster, an antiseptic wipe and a small bag for rubbish

Bivacco ASTASS
Step out of your comfort zone and join us for a new experience! A weekend in the Apennine woods, to try out bushcraft techniques and life in nature with a bushcraft expert, an Environmental Hiking Guide, and new adventure companions. We'll set off towards Bivacco ASTASS through the wild Valle Tribolata which, with its autumn-dressed beech woods and its rocky "bombs" (pillow lava), offers us unique scenery. Once we reach the bivouac, we'll get to work preparing everything needed to cook dinner and keep warm during the night. NOTE: at the bivouac there are no mattresses on the "beds", just wooden boards to sleep on, there's a stove but you'll need to chop wood to heat up and cook, there's no running water, no electricity, no bathroom, and it will be cold. Besides the gear needed for the overnight stay and activities, a great spirit of adaptability, good cold resistance, and teamwork will be needed to set up the fire, cook, and leave the bivouac as we found it.
How do you get to Ferriere? 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.

Questions?
I've never done a multi-day trek, can I do it?
⌄
You need to be fit enough to walk a full day (8 h a day) and carry your backpack for 2 days. Flat or slightly inclined sections with short stretches on steep slopes and rocks, not tiring or demanding.
Can I join on my own?
