バリシャーノのおすすめ登山＆山歩きルート

The Campo Imperatore plateau is a picturesque place with breathtaking views. Known as Little Tibet, it is surrounded by the main peaks of the Gran Sasso range. At its highest point, we find the old hotel where Mussolini was held prisoner, the Astronomical Observatory, and the cable car. Numerous trails branch off toward the peaks of the Gran Sasso range.

It has nothing to envy of the equally beautiful Dolomite landscapes

Stunning view, especially early in the morning or during sunrise

This is the most difficult and technical section of the entire normal route; mountaineering footwear and a great deal of experience are required. However, the view of the summit is worth it.

The Normal Route is a fairly simple route, except for the last 400 meters, the gully and the ridge, which, being EEA grade (expert equipped hikers), require considerable physical strength and technique. Mountaineering boots are also required, and a helmet is recommended. Since the ridge is also quite technical, it is absolutely not suitable for those with a fear of heights, the elderly, children, or anyone without mountaineering experience.

Rifugio Garibaldi is located in Campo Pericoli, in the heart of Gran Sasso. It is a historic refuge, currently undergoing renovation. A room for emergency bivouac is always available. The reopening should be scheduled for the summer season of 2025, but I recommend contacting CAI l'Aquila for updated information: https://cailaquila.it/rifugi-e-bivacchi-cai-laquila/rifugio-giuseppe-garibaldi-loc-campo-pericoli/
