SUMMER

The "high altitude" season!

MAGIC AND ACTIVE YOUR SUMMER IN ITALIAN ALPS

Come to north Italy, the best place in the Alps to discover mountains! Hiking, multi-day trekking and holidays in the centre of Europe!

Summer is the "high altitude" season!

In Italy, the Alps offer itineraries for everyone, from simple walks in the presence of imposing glaciers to long and challenging treks of several days between mountain pastures, rocks and ice. In summer nature is in full activity, wild animals are busy stocking food, it will be fantastic to observe and hear for example marmots with their unmistakable cry or see chamois move in small pack, or simply follow the eagles hovering in the blue skies or have the good fortune to spot a bearded vulture.

The alternatives to the chaotic Dolomites are Piedmont with its wonderful mountains where you can still find beautiful and not crowded valleys, Lombardy with its beautiful and rocky Rhaetian Alps and Aosta Valley with the highest mountains of Europe. The north-west of Italy is the cradle of the great mountains, high, green and with a huge variety of rocks and minerals. You can choose naturalistic and cultural hikes and for the more sporty, challenging paths. You can do everything in a single excursion and in a single day or dedicate yourself to a week of relaxation, physical activity and culture, or even in a weekend combine the pleasure of a little trekking with the genuine and rustic flavors that Italian mountain huts can offer.

Whatever is your physical training and desire to walk, there are paths, refuges and peaks to climb. Look at the proposals of Trekupitaly and if you do not find the one that suits you, contact me and we will find together the best solution for you and your group or family.
