From the Badile overlooking Bondo with the Cengalo next to it, we will take you between peaks and glaciers to Poschiavo, passing by the top of Castello, the Palù, the Diavolezza and other enchanting landscapes and cozy huts.

For the first time in four editions, our route will run only above 2,000 meters, we will bivouac above 3,000 meters and we will reach peaks that are close to 4,000 meters.
