Safety Tips

1. Choose routes according to your physical and technical abilities, researching the area to be visited, the accessibility of the trails, and equipping yourself with an adequate hiking map.
2. Provide clothing and equipment suitable for the commitment and length of the hike and carry in your backpack what is needed for any emergency situations and a first aid kit.
3. It is advisable not to undertake a mountain hike alone. In any case, tell someone the itinerary you plan to follow, informing them of your return.
4. Check the weather forecast and constantly observe the weather development.
5. If in doubt, turn back. Sometimes it is better to give up rather than find yourself in difficulty due to bad weather or taking on difficulties beyond your strength, skills, or equipment.
6. Avoid unnecessary trail departures and shortcuts.
7. All listed routes develop in a natural environment. Walking them means accepting the risk of practicing a sport in nature.

The information contained in this sheet is subject to inevitable changes, so no indication has absolute value. It is not possible to completely avoid inaccuracies or imprecisions, considering the rapid environmental or weather changes that may take place. In this respect, we disclaim all responsibility for any changes experienced by the user. It is recommended, however, to check the state of the places and the environmental or weather conditions before undertaking a hike.

The first section of the route starting from Passo Bordala and leading to the summit of Monte Biaena is characterized by a first paved and flat part, while the last stretch consists of 300 meters of elevation gain over a short distance of two km. You can return (with the proper equipment and preparation) via the via ferrata path 673 that descends to Malga Somator, otherwise by the route just climbed.

The Valle di Gresta area is reachable from other Garda Trentino centers via the extra-urban bus line 332 (Rovereto - Mori - Riva del Garda - Arco - Bolognano).

Once you reach the Mori stop, we suggest continuing with a shuttle that will take you to Passo Bordala.

Mountain hikes require specific clothing and equipment. Even on relatively short and easy outings, it is always better to be well equipped to avoid unpleasant surprises and to cope with unforeseen events such as, for example, a sudden thunderstorm or loss of energy.

What to bring for a mountain trek?

In the backpack (for a day hike, usually a 25/30L is recommended) it is good to bring:

• water bottle (1L)
• snack (for example, dried fruit or chocolate)
• first aid kit
• windbreaker jacket
• a fleece sweater
• spare t-shirt and socks (preferably sealed in a plastic bag)
• worn or at least carried in the backpack a pair of long pants
• hat
• sunscreen
• sunglasses
• gloves
• whistle to get found in case of emergency

Wear suitable footwear for the route and the season. The trail surface can be irregular or uneven and a pair of hiking boots will protect you from sprains. A grassy slope, a rock slab, or a steep path, if wet, can become dangerous without proper footwear.

Finally... do not forget the camera! It will be useful to capture the hike and the countless breathtaking views that Garda Trentino hides around every corner. If you want to share your memories with us, you can use the hashtag #GardaTrentino
