Trip Itinerary
1
Bergamo
Day 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!

Rifugio Antonio Curò
Day 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
Day 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
Day 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
Rifugio Fratelli Calvi
Day 4-5
Rifugio Fratelli Calvi. Perepee Perepee Perepee (army trombs) Out of bed camrades! breakfast time. The trek today is just wonderful, we will walk along the 2000 meters for a few kilometers and pass a mountain hut that is very dramatic. the end of the track will be downhill to Rifugio Calvi. Probably will take 3 to 4 hours of trekking. There will be a lake for the brave one to swim and cool down. And soft grass to nap while waiting for dinner time.
6
Rifugio Laghi Gemelli
Day 5-6
Rifugio Laghi Gemelli. Breakfast is ready, come on everyone. Another day of great mountain walking.. we need to go on a mountain pass on our way to Rifugio Laghi Gemelli.. the trekking will be 4 to 5 hours. The mountain hut is on the lake and very welcoming. This is our last night in the mountains. A bright starry night is expected, Tomorrow with a 3-hour walk we should be back to to "the real world" but these mountains will always remain within you.
