Alps

1 Day

Apr - Nov

Description

I invite you to a beautiful day hiking At the Piz Molinera, in the Lepontine Alps, in Switzerland.

Not only is the route very enjoyable, but the views from the top, at 2288 meters, are amazing! Indeed, we see the entire Bellini, the plain of Magadino and Lake Maggiore.

During the day trip you will have the opportunity to learn more about the local flora and fauna. We are surrounded by a beautiful forest. Besides, there is an educational trail and sculptures. And for those passionate about stars, it's possible to walk the path of the planets. There are good information panels about the sun and the planets. It's a beautiful tour to do with the family, apt for kids!

The ascent will be easier due to the Monti di Sauru cablecar. Besides, we will stop at the Brogoldone hut. We will walk during 4:30 – 5 hours in total.

About the guide

Elisabetta

Mountain Leader

My name is Elisabetta but everyone calls me Betty. I'm Italian but based in Lugano Ticino, in the Italian speaking part of Switzerland. I graduated in Environmental Science. Besides Italian, which is my native language, I also speak English and German.

I felt in love with the mountains as a child, during my first experience in the snow and tree climbing in my Grandpa's garden. Now many years have gone by, but my passion is still as strong!

I covered many trails and paths in the Alps as Monviso Ring, Monte Rosa Trek, Bernina Trek, Altavia n1 Dolomiti...

I've been to Patagonia (Hielo Continental Sur), Tanzania (Kilimanjaro 5985m), Nepal (Khumbu Valley), Bulgaria (Rodope), Canada (Quebec's Parks), Morocco (Toubkal 4167m), Spain (Sierra Nevada Mulhacen 3479m), Ireland (Carrantuohill 1.39m & Kerry Ring), Norway (Tromso), Mt. Elbrus (5642m) so far….

Since 2010 I’m an UIMLA Mountain Leader now joint to the Swiss organization ASAM and Nordic Walking instructor. I propose daily and weekly hiking tours between Como (Italy) and Lugano (Switzerland) and in the central part of the Alps from San Gottardo (CH) to Stelvio pass. Especially in Graübunden – Engadin (CH) and Valtellina (I).

No matter the season, any time of the year is good for hiking and exploring, so let’s do it together!!!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
