DESCRIPTION
Magical winter excursion with snowshoes to the Rifugio Orso Bruno passing through the Ciocomiti - Malga Vigo hut and the Rifugio Lago delle Malghette.
The winter excursion that we offer is very beautiful. The first stretch - 130 m in altitude up to the Baita Ciocomiti - Malga Vigo - is on an easy dirt road usually beaten by snowmobiles. The second stretch - 99 m in altitude on the path - leads to the beautiful Malghette Lake, with the refuge of the same name. The third stretch - 268 m in altitude on the path - goes up to the Rifugio Orso Bruno: this is the most tiring stretch.
For those who want to go up from Campo Carlo Magno to the Ciocomiti hut - Malga Vigo with snowmobiles.
