Moonlight Snowshoe Hike in Foppolo with a Traditional Mountain Hut Dinner

There are winter evenings that seem made to be experienced away from the city: snow beneath your feet, a clear sky, the full moon lighting up the mountains, and a warm mountain hut waiting for us at the end of the climb.

This evening snowshoe hike in Foppolo, in the heart of Val Brembana, is designed for Guidders who want to experience the winter mountains in a simple, sociable, and unusual way.

We will set off from Foppolo, one of the best-known mountain destinations in the province. From here we will put on our snowshoes and begin climbing along a snowy route that, in about an hour, will lead us to Terrazza Salomon.

The route will take place beneath the evening sky, with the light of the full moon making the landscape even more enchanting. The climb has no particular technical difficulties and follows mainly a groomed trail, but the roughly 400 meters of elevation gain still require a basic level of physical endurance.

Once we arrive, the most convivial moment of the evening will be waiting for us: dinner at the mountain hut with traditional Bergamo cuisine, perfect for warming up and sharing the experience with the other Guidders.

After dinner we will put our snowshoes back on and begin the descent along the same route, returning toward Foppolo beneath the night sky.

An evening of snow, mountains, good food, and new people to share the journey with.

Daylight gives way to the moon, temperatures drop, the mountains grow silent, and every step on the snow takes on a different atmosphere.

There is no need to reach a great summit: it is enough to walk together, arrive at the mountain hut, and find yourselves in front of a warm dinner while outside it is night.

It is a perfect snowshoe hike for those looking for a first guided winter experience, for those who want to meet new Guidders, or simply for those who wish to turn an ordinary evening in the city into a small adventure on the snow.
