ADVICES

It is advisable to read the description very carefully before starting out on an excursion in order to evaluate the difficulty and to compare it to our level of training.
Orienteering courses take place every week in the Val di Peio. It is important to study the course chosen on the map (we suggest Kompass maps), and to keep in the rucksack together equipment which must at least include:

•  woollen hat

• protective glasses

• wind jacke

• jumper and shirt

• change of clothing

• gloves

• food and drink

It is also advisable to bring strong warm trousers, woollen socks, spats, altimeter and compass. Avoid wearing shoes with smooth soles: only wear boots with non-slip soles. A first aid kit and suntan lotion is also advisable. Be aware of the dangers, never under-estimate the mountain, changes in the climatic conditions at high altitude are suddens the fog can lead even the most experienced mountain climber/walker off course. Therefore to set out early in order to come back early is the best advice that one can follow when setting out on an excursion.
Always leave information about the itinerary to be followed where you are staying.
