Ferraro Lodge Winter Trek

We organize hiking all year long for private and small group. You can either join an already planned hike and save some money as you will share the fixed costs or you can book an hike privately. Once you book the hike, the trek will be online and we'll try to involve other people. If you prefer to have a Private Hike, there is no problems!

In the week end children pay already half price. For the long trekking it has to be personally discussed. Anyway some discount can be applyed.

Definitely children are most welcome. I personally start going in mountain at 5 years old. Anyway it is obvious that children have to be happy to come and experience something different from everyday life in city. I personally like very much children having experienced many volunteer job with them in Asia and Europe.

Generally there is no problem. It is good to know it before so that we can organize better.

Trekking in mountain is tiring. It is not necessary being particularly sporty but it is fundamental to be psychologically prepared to be tired. Walk is not a strong effort but it is long and continuous. Fatigue is part of the experience and make you even more happy when you reach the shelter or the peak you are planned to reach that day. We offer a wide choice of trekking, from challenging to the “lazy” ones.

Generally weather in Piedmont alps is quite different from valley to valley. If in the region where the trekking is located is bad weather we can do a similar trekking where we can get more sun. In case the weather is awful everywhere it is possible to postpone the trekking or chose for a more cultural kind of event (visiting Fenestrelle Fort –Reggia di Venaria – Abazzia di Novalesa – Sant Antonio di Raverso).

It is often possible to re-arrange the trekking according to the physical condition of the participants. Our philosophy is to bring a small group of person; generally a single family or single group of friends coming together in order to have more chance to have homogeneous need for the single persons. Trekking means adventure. If everything will go exactly as planned something is wrong

Normally one guide as the normal size of a group is between 2 and 6 persons. For big groups or for Corporate trips the guides are usually one every 8-10 persons. But everything can be discussed privately. In having more guide you will have more flexibility. The guide aim is to became a friend after the hike and this is pretty normal in living such a strong experience together. We already travelled around the world to visit our beloved customers!
