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.

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
