Versante Sud Orobie Trail trail running guide

Versante Sud Orobie Trail is a trail running guide that includes 52 routes from the Grigne to Lake Iseo!

The Orobie are the first mountains in Lombardy that interrupt the Pianura Padana, slowly rising towards the main Alpine arc, along the Swiss border. Here, nature has crafted a different geography for almost every valley, the landscapes change continuously, and sometimes it just takes a turn around the corner to find oneself in front of a new exciting adventure terrain. In the face of such a wide variety of landscapes, trail running is one of the activities that is increasingly chosen to fully experience the thrilling contrasts offered by the Orobie.

This guide helps you deepen your knowledge of this varied, unpredictable, and beautiful territory, assisting you in choosing routes 365 days a year. The proposed itineraries are very diverse, ranging from those along the shores of Lake Como and Lake Iseo for the colder months, to the peaks of the Orobie giants for the summer period! It is no coincidence that 52 itineraries are proposed: one trail for every week of the year.
