*** ATTENTION ****** POSSIBLE STARTS MONDAY AUGUST 21st (could NOT edit the date). At the moment dates are flexible to suit your needs. Infact What does it mean? If at least 2 of you contact me and tell me that you will join my trip if I move it earlier or later in calendar, WE CAN DO THAT! ALSO, trip will close around August 17th in order for me to secure reservations. Thank U! In this trekking tour, we will visit the Orobie Pre Alps, around the Provence of Bergamo, north of Italy, in particular the Eastern chain, which is the most spectacular and dramatic for trekking and view sight. The trekking will begin and end at an altitude of 800mt. Most of the trekking will be held at an altitude of 2000mt with a peak point of 2600mt. Despite this altitude, the trekking is medium-easy with no particular difficulties. No particular technical equipment is needed besides a good pair of mountain boots, a heavy jacket, clean shirts and socks spares, sunscreen, sunglasses, a light raincoat, a water bottle, and a decent midsize backpack. The daily walk is between 3 to 4 hours, depending on the physical shape you come in. There is no racing, everyone will walk as comfortably as they feel. It is almost impossible to lose the main path, so the speedy ones can go ahead as I will stay back supporting, physically and mentally the end of the line. The daily walk will begin after breakfast and we expect to reach the next rest point by mid day / early afternoon. After a quick meal, there will be chances to rest or do activities. Some of the main activities will be mountain lake swimming, sunbathing, grass sleeping, Frisbee, or, for the most restless ones, more climbing and exploring of the area. There are a few 3000 mts peaks to climb if you feel particularly energetic, and I can lead you or give you directions. The Evening is the grand feast with dinner at the local mountain hut (I promise, the food will be amazing!) and they always offer some Grappa afterward.
About me! I grew up around the Bergamo area and I feel a special connection to these mountains. I enjoy Mountain backpacking usually with my dog Oby, the mascot of the group. I also enjoy exotic travels and if these local ones are successful, I will try to organize something more long-range and wild.
Details about the accommodation: MEALS AND ACCOMMODATIONS ARE EXTRA AND COSTS 55 EURO PER DAY to pay directly at Mountain Huts. : Dinner and Breakfast will be at hostel (30 Euro extra) and overnights will be OPTIONAL at mountain huts (25 Euro extra) or in tent and sleeping bag (FREE). Please connect with me about your physical shape before getting on board. Keeping your backpack to a minimum will help you to cover longer distances faster. Keep me posted if you have any questions in the Q&A section!

Reiseverlauf
1
Bergamo
Tag 1
Transfer from Bergamo to Trek Starting Point in the morning. This transfer needs to be done in the early morning, we suggest you arrive in Bergamo the night before. We can organize the logistics in advance. Ideally, I will pick up the whole group here and travel to starting point. It is going to be a 1.5-hour drive. We will stop for coffee and bathroom break on the way up. If we are lucky we'll be cozy because we will be 4 and a half (our mascot, Oby, the dog) and backpacks ..a little discomfort before experiencing 5 days of pure freedom and endless skies!
2
Rifugio Antonio Curò
Tag 1-2
First Night at Rifugio Curò al Barbellino. The trekking is an easy one, ideal to begin the tour. it is about 3.5 hours in the slow phase. Here we gain altitude and from now on we will stay above 1800 mt. On top the view is idiliac with the great lake where we can swim if the day is sunny. The kitchen here is wonderful (the best on the tour, I promise!) and we will be treated to a lovely dinner... and a good sleep under the stars to be ready for day 2.
3
Refuge Merelli to Coca
Tag 2-3
Rifugio Mario Merelli al Coca. Morning breakfast and ready we go! the transfer is about 3.5 hours with some spectacular chain passages, nothing dangerous.. also, the first wildlife will be visible as mountain goats and marmots on the way. Once here I run into a white ermine, I could not believe my eyes. Again once at the hut, we'll have plenty of time to do extra activities or just enjoy ourselves before a mountaintop dinner with an astonishing valley view, and a good night's sleep in our tents before day 3.
4
Rifugio Baroni to Brunone
Tag 3-4
Rifugio Baroni al Brunone, Good morning! Coffee is served! The trekking will be a bit longer but extremely spectacular. With its 4/5 hours trek, we will reach an altitude of 2600 mt before descending onto the hut Brunone at 2230 mt. If we are lucky we will still step on a little snow.. The view is probably the best ever. Once here we saw an Eagle.. who knows, we might get lucky again.. Wildlife should be the norm here, the air is chill in the evening, and the sunset is quite terrific. A warm dinner, a cozy warm sleep, and ready for day 4
5
Bergamo
Tag 4
End of Trekking, we go home, kiss kiss good bye Expect to be in Bergamo late afternoon / evening. After our descent I will escort you down to Bergamo and facilitate your continuation of your trip home. Again, logistics will be made in advances so that your next connection will not be missed. ... but I am sure you will be. Goodbye. Until next time
