Description

Looking for a unique hiking experience in the Alps? Then come with me on this 5-day program through the Sentiero Roma in Italy.

Sentiero Roma is a mountain route that goes through the Val Masino in the Sondrio Province of Lombardy. It’s an inspiring path that connects several refuges in the Western Rhaetian Alps.

During the 5 days of the program, we’ll enjoy hiking from hut to hut as we explore these fantastic natural spots. While hiking, we’ll be able to contemplate the characteristic granite mountains and towers in the area.

We’ll start in Bagni di Masino at 1,172 meters above sea level and end at the Scotti Refuge (1,470 meters). The hike through the Sentiero Roma has an elevation gain of around 1,000 meters. We’ll experience altitudes of 2,000 to 3,000 meters on the different tours. For a more detailed description of the itinerary, please take a look below. Also, take into account that it is very important to be physically fit for this program.

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.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
