From Colle di Balisio to the summit of Grigna Settentrionale - Via Estiva

Starting from the parking lot, it's an hour to the Antonietta refuge. Then the real climb begins, taking us to the summit of Grignone via the winter route in 3:15. Spectacular views of the entire Alpine chain (we could see Monte Rosa), and a frozen summit cross that will leave you speechless. Lunch at the refuge and then descent via the summer route. Truly beautiful, beautiful, beautiful ☀️ (It's 1,560 meters of elevation gain, not 1,900 meters :)

The elevation gain calculation is incorrect because from the Sacro Cuore di Balisio church to the summit of Grignone the elevation gain is 1570 meters. (I have the impression that Garmin is not reliable)

yesterday was a foggy day with poor visibility, great for training

Another nice hike with Andrea (first time for him). Went up the winter route, and got off the summer path (managing to avoid the rain😅). Snow still present on Ganda and along the snowfield route. Panorama not very present due to the fog.

Data a little off, the recording stopped at the summit, the altitude difference is not reliable, during the descent the phone was turned off. Difference in altitude approx. 1660 m, both uphill and downhill, minimum altitude 750 m, max altitude 2410 m

Slow climb but the current shape is what it is. A route that always offers satisfaction, especially in winter conditions and repays the effort

Attention! The time taken was about 8 hours (1700 m of altitude difference...). I don't know why the program counted only 5 hours.
