Embark on the difficult Monte Bocco and Monte Malpasso Loop, a challenging hike that spans 7.6 miles (12.2 km) with a significant elevation gain of 2319 feet (707 metres). This route takes about 5 hours and 12 minutes to complete, guiding you through dense beech woods and onto open ridges. You will navigate rocky passages and discover the serene alpine waters of Lago Squincio before reaching the summit of Monte Bocco, which offers wide-ranging views.
To tackle this route, you need very good fitness, sturdy shoes, and some alpine experience, especially for the exposed and rocky sections along the ridge. Parking is available at Passo Lagastrello, which serves as the trailhead. Be aware that winter conditions with fresh snow can make some parts of the trail particularly strenuous if they are untracked.
This loop explores the border between Emilia and Tuscany, offering a unique perspective within the Parco Nazionale dell'Appennino Tosco-Emiliano. The trail provides expansive views of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, showcasing the diverse landscapes of this protected area. It is a notable route for experiencing the rugged beauty of the region's high mountains.
