Fellaria Glacier

​

Elevation gain: 700 m  

Duration: about 6 hours

Hike difficulty level: E 

​

Very impressive hike in one of the most charming corners of Central Italian Alps. We will reach the Gera dam and cross its right side up and up until we get to Rifugio Bignami (2401m) in the middle of a picturesque alpine pasture: ALPE FELLARIA.

Just after the pasture it starts the Luigi Marson’s a glaciologist path that will take us straight to the front of Fellaria Glaciar (2604 m) that is actually melting very quickly.

Stunning excursion that offers an unique nature show but at the same time gives an idea of the damages made by global warming. On the way down we can take a break at Rifugio Bignami (2401m) before getting to the cars.
