La Sentinella In Spinone al lago

24/09/2025: On Saturday, September 20, 2025, a friend and I went to the Gianpace Refuge. It's a beautiful refuge, a quiet, well-managed, and welcoming place, easily accessible to everyone with a simple walk. The trail is well-marked and not challenging. We ate and drank well. The Gianpace Refuge is featured in this year's Girarifugi della Lombardia (Lombardy Refuge Guide). It's a refuge I discovered this year, and it's worth a visit. The refuge is located in the Bergamo area, in the Orobie Park. You have to reach the village of Valgoglio, and then there's the trail. We visited the village and then took trail 232, which took us just over an hour to the Gianpace Refuge, stopping for photos and to admire the view. I've discovered other Bergamo valleys, as the Gianpace Refuge is located between Val Goglio and Val Sanguigno, in the Alta Val Seriana at an altitude of 1,331 meters above sea level. It was a pleasant trip that I recommend and we also found a beautiful sunny and warm day on our side.

14/08/2025: A beautiful hike starting from Valgoglio. Easy, shaded, and close to the stream, you can reach the refuge in about an hour's walk. We booked for lunch. The service was quick and the food was good, and everything was managed by friendly people.
