Hike in Val di Scalve: Trail to the Gleno Dam and Wildlife Observatory

A circular trek in Val di Scalve that takes us to the heart of one of the most iconic places in the Orobie Alps. Together with the Guidders, we will walk through woods, open views and ancient villages to the remains of the Gleno Dam: a powerful place, where the beauty of the lake meets a story that leaves its mark.

We will start along a path immersed in the woods of Val di Scalve, alternating gentle stretches with steeper but always pleasant climbs. The path progressively opens onto wide panoramas until reaching the area of the Gleno Dam, where the imposing remains tell a story that is still alive.

The lake that forms at the foot of the dam creates a surprising contrast: calm waters and wild scenery that make this place unique. We will continue passing by the wildlife observatory, perfect for stopping and observing the valley from above, and reach the characteristic village of Pianezza, with its stone houses and the authentic mountain atmosphere.

A complete excursion that combines nature, history and sharing.
