Full description
Live a unique experience, the Sentiero Torti mountaineering trek, high above Lake Garda.
Halfway between a via ferrata and a climbing route, it could be compared to a mountaineering route where some rope manoeuvres are required to proceed safely, a steady footing and some exposure.
If you don't lack courage, book the hike and enjoy the breathtaking panorama!
What we will do
The meeting is at 9.00 a.m. near Arco, in the province of Trento. Here we will meet the Alpine Guide and head together to Pregasina, about 15 minutes' drive away.
Once there, we will begin the descent by road to reach the actual start of the Sentiero Torti (Torti Path). The trail, also known as 'dei Contrabbandieri' (smugglers' trail), was built as a track for the construction of a road, but the project was later abandoned. It is said that the trail was then used by smugglers to circumvent the Austro-Hungarian border during the First World War.
We will therefore wear a helmet and harness (included in the fee) to enable us to proceed safely. The route is a real mountaineering route, not particularly difficult but very exposed. In fact, the route winds along a long ledge overlooking Lake Garda, which offers us an incomparable view.
In the company of the guide, we will walk for about 4 hours along more or less easy stretches, alternating between exposed and exciting passages. The first part is the most exposed, while about halfway along we will come across a path with sparse vegetation where we can take a short break. Finally, we will resume our descent towards Pregasina.
The activity has a total duration of about 6 hours and ends with the return to the starting point.
