On Monte Misonet

From Favrio’s church follow the SAT 433 signs until you reach Monte Misonèt. This easy trail follows a gravelly path, with steep sections, along which you will find a memorial dedicated to S. Antonio Abate, standing on a rock, and the “Madonnina” shrine displaying the inscription: “Passegger che passi per questa via, ti prego ‘n’Ave Maria” (Those who wander this path, shall pray the Hail Mary). When you arrive at the destination you can rest surrounded by the green pastures. On your way back, follow the same path until you reach the 433 sign, indicating the climb to Monte Misone, turn right and continue through the woods. After passing a small cabin on the left, you will come to a paved forest road leading to Malghe del Misone, a group of farmsteads. Continue to the right following a series of bends until you cross a small bridge. As you approach the end of the descent, you will find yourself near Fiavè archaeological area, UNESCO World Heritage Site. Take a right into the main road and after a few metres enter a small paved road on the right-hand side that runs along a picnic area with a small fountain. Pass a group of small villas and continue along the path towards il Molino; here, turn right to enter a town street connecting Fiavè to Favrio, starting point of this excursion.

You need to wear the right clothing and take the proper gear when you go hiking in the mountains. Even on relatively short easy outings make sure to take all you need so you don't run into trouble if things take an unexpected turn, for example a storm blows up or you have a sudden drop in energy levels.

What should you take when you go on a hike?

Your rucksack (for a day trip a 25/30L capacity should do) should contain:

water canteen (1L) snacks (e.g. mixed dried fruit or chocolate) First aid kit windproof jacket fleece change of t-shirt and socks (in a plastic bag) make sure to wear or at least bring a pair of long trousers hat sun screen sunglasses gloves whistle to attract attention in an emergency

Make sure you're wearing the right footwear for the trail and season. The going can get rough and rocky underfoot and a pair of hiking boots will protect you from sprains. When wet, a grassy slope, rocky slab or steep trail can be dangerous unless you are wearing the proper footwear.

And finally... don't forget to bring your camera! You'll need it to capture the stunning views you come across all over Garda Trentino. And if you like, you can share your memories with us at #GardaTrentino.

Safety Tips

Choose itineraries that suit your physical and technical abilities. Collect information about the area you are visiting and the trail’s conditions and get a detailed trekking map. Wear clothes and take equipment that suit the difficulty and length of your tour. Keep emergency gear in your rucksack, including first aid supplies. Do not go walking alone in the mountains. In any case, tell someone where you are going and report back on returning. Look at the weather forecast before setting off and always keep an eye on the weather. In case of doubt, go back. It is better to give up than risk bad weather or face difficulties beyond your strength, ability and equipment. Do not leave marked paths and do not take shortcuts. All described walks are in a natural environment and therefore their use is at your own risk.
