MOUNTAIN TREKKING WITH SNOWSHOES AT LAKE GARDA DOLOMITES ALPS ITALY
Snowshoe hiking dinner and overnight stay in a lodge at lake Garda
Trekking trips in the winter (excursions with snowshoes)
are beginning to draw more and more attention and interest for a large
number of persons as they are offering the possibility to encounter
nature even in the cold season without too much physical exercise and
without the use of complex equipment. The dinner in company with your
friends in a warm and cozy mountain inn or in a mountain lodge situated
in a lonesome valley in the Italian Dolomites which is easily accessible
by hiking in the snow under the moonlight, will make you live a very
special and different weekend. This type of trekking trip at Lake Garda
Italy requires a basic physical condition. Some sense for adventure,
training and flexibility are necessary for the overnight stay in the
mountain lodge.
WHEN ? every weekend from JANUARY - MARCH, with the following program:
Meeting point
Parking-lot at highway exit: autostrada ROVERETO SUD
on Saturday at 10 hrs. or in your Hotel at Lake Garda Italy - you can
park your car there and from there we are leaving with our mini-vans to
the starting point of the hiking excursion.
EXCURSION Type A - Monti Lessini - Lake Garda taly
Overnight stay in mountain inn
From the meeting point we reach with our mini-vans a typical mountain
inn (30 min. drive) and we occupy the rooms which we have reserved for
you. The hiking trip on Saturday reaches the "Busoni": there are
interesting forts, trenches and tunnels dug into the rocks by Austrian
soldiers during the World War 1 (torch indispensable). The hiking
excursion will take us about 3 hrs time of walking. For the trip on
Sunday we follow a path between the "malghe" (malga = alpine farms,
typical Italian cow shelter). We will walk ca. 4 hrs. on nice, undulated
snow fields.

served a set dinner but you will have the option and possibility to
choose between some typical local dishes which you agree upon with the
other participants. Soft drinks, beer and wine, available as you like.
Sleeping: "mountain-lodge-style" which is dormitory-like: all in one
large room. Although a great number of blankets is available, we

HIGHLIGHTS ON ROCK CLIMBING, HIKING, VIA FERRRATA AND TREKKING BY
MOUNTAIN GUIDES SCHOOL ARCO LAKE GARDADOLOMITES ALPS TRENTINO ITALY
Our highlights regarding trekking hiking via ferrata at Lake Garda or in the Dolomites Italy or on
the Greek Island Kalymnos have not been chosen by our alpine mountain guides school but are the preferences
of our customers in the 20 years of our activity. Please click on the image for a complete program of our
trips and courses.
With our proposal of the
Brenta Trek Italy, we would like to offer a 5 days trekking trip from lodge to lodge crossing from the
South to the North, the entire
Italian Brenta Dolomites Group, with overnight stay in the
mountain
lodges, suitable for everybody. The participants only need to have a good physical condition and some
experience in hiking trips in the mountains.
This
via ferrata course at Lake Garda Italy is destined for people who love trekking or mountain walks, and for
whom who would like to try themselves in the vertical world in complete safety. The rock climbing experience
of this day is very important for the performance of our via ferrata courses and trips. The next two days we
will climb the most beautiful via ferratas in the
Lake Garda Italy area.
The offer of the mountaineering School Lake Garda consists of the Crossing of
Brenta Dolomites Italy
from North to South in five or three days with overnight stay in the alpine lodges. The layer conformation
of the rocks in the Brenta Dolomites permits the access to the many ledges which are cutting the big walls
transversely. On these ledges are running the
via ferrata delle Bocchette, from one pass to another, across the entire Brenta Dolomites Italy Group.
Overnight stay in the
mountain lodges
The top of
Marmolada Dolomites is the famous and the via ferrata on the Western Crest is a dream of many
mountaineers like the "Normal route" of Mont Blanc. The
via ferrata on the crest of Marmolada is classified as difficult but as always the difficulty at high
altitude depends on the environmental conditions which can vary extremely in the Dolomites. Obviously for this
type of via ferrata trip it is necessary to have a good physical condition and sometimes even the use of the
rope is necessary.
Outdoor incentives teambuilding meeting Here you will find our proposals for travel agencies, companies, clubs
and associations which would like to offer to their clients, personnel or members
outdoor incentives activity
in a scenic location in Trentino. Our School of alpine guides is taking care of the complete organization and will
prepare an individually tailored program for every business outdoor incentives or teambuilding and meeting.

The
Brenta Dolomites group is similar to the more famous Eastern Dolomites but the rock walls and
pillars there are bigger, the environment harder and wilder therefore less touristic and more alpine.
Through these multicolor fantastic walls runs the famous track of "Via ferrata Bocchette del Brenta"
which is ideal to exercise our
via ferrata courses and trips in the Brenta Dolomites. This course is destined for people who have a
little experience in high mountains or via ferrata or for very athletic and adventurous participants.
Overnight stay in the mountain lodges.
