Every now and then I get cravings, like pregnant women, even though I'm male and quite elderly.
However, considering that I don't have much time left to live, even if I were to live to be a hundred, I try to suppress these cravings, so as not to go into the afterlife with regrets.
The weather is perfect

Climb to Grotta dei Pagani, then crossing to Passo di Pozzera and descent to Valle dell'ombra.
A tour that requires good training and adequate equipment.
Route mainly on gravel path, with particularly steep and challenging uphill and downhill sections.
We wanted to climb to the top of Pizzo di Corzene

Every year, for several decades, I have enjoyed returning to Monte Alto at least once. Which was, once, one of my favorite training areas as a skyrunner. Today we decided to climb from Malga Alta di Sotto to reach Rif. Magnolini.
The program, once we reached the summit of Monte Alto, was different; but

Not a particularly long tour, but challenging in some sections (EE+ the climb to the Poiat Pass with its descent) and to the Gatto Pass.
Traveling along the Valbona Valley you reach the lake of the same name on a good path.
The climb to the Poiat Pass is in some sections on faint tracks and even worse

Every five years or so I have been happy to return to Lake Pian Palù for over half a century. Each time it gives me new sensations and views, both of the lake (now partially emptied for maintenance - I assume), and of the vast mountain range that surrounds it and of which, in the past decades, I have

The weather is very changeable, with showers alternating with clearings.
I'm working on a demanding project and they call me to know if it's ready. No, it's not ready; but working for free I don't accept pressure or interference.
So I call my friends - who are free - and we go up to the farmhouse for a

Climb to Monte Bronzone from Lerano di Viadanica.
A tour that should be considered hiking, with the exception of the final part on the crest, which goes from the shoulder to the summit. This section is mountaineering and should be approached with caution, as well as preparation.
Bronzone is part of the

Climb to Boer (Monte Boario) along the steep dirt road that starts from Fonteno and then continues on a path to Colle di Luen and from there, along a path in a beech forest, you reach Sella de Boer, where there is a small chapel dedicated to the Virgin (ex voto). Here there are benches for picnics and

Wide tour in the footsteps of the 1940/45 Resistance of the Garibaldi Brigade, led by Giorgio Paglia.
The Command was located in the current Baita Monte Alto Refuge (in Avene), with a garrison at Malgalunga.
The tour is to be considered challenging, although hiking, with the exception of the Cimette ridge

Classic hiking tour to the Rifugio Museo della Malga Lunga, even if the equipped part of the Scale is considered mountaineering. The entire route requires good preparation and sure-footedness in several sections, in addition to that of the Scale. Appropriate clothing and equipment are recommended.

I have been to Magnolini many times, in every season; starting however either from Colle Vareno or from the more convenient Colle Valzelli.
This time I decided to start from Rogno, and specifically involving the Monti and San Vigilio hamlets.
The beautiful mule track that goes up from Monti requires excellent

Wide tour of Monte Colombina, done with ease and with great calm.
A splendid day, but windy, which gave us wonderful and clear views of the Orobie group, the Adamello group and the Sebino.
The route is hiking and takes place mostly on a good mule track, which however has many forks. It mostly runs in the

Wide circumnavigation of Misma, passing by the forepeak, the summit and the sanctuary of Santa Maria di Misma, with a final visit to the sanctuary of the Madonna della Forcella di Pradalunga. Interesting church full of frescoes in late Baroque Renaissance style.

Not a long tour, but a challenging one.
It is considered hiking up to the Cornagera cliffs; then it becomes mountaineering, whether you tackle some cliffs, or if you decide to climb to the summit of Cornagera via the normal route. Both the cliffs and the pinnacles are recommended for experienced climbers

Every now and then, the ailments of age make themselves felt. Therefore, given the pain in my ankle for a few days, we opted for the short circuit of Monte Muffetto.
The view from the summit is spectacular. Everywhere you turn, you're faced with imposing mountain ranges, with vast pastures rising from
