Wild camp @ Pizzo Tre Signori - Italy
Me, my GF and our Golden Retriever just got back from a one nighter right at 2200m (7200ft) underneath Pizzo Tre Signori, in the Italian Alps.
The hike up from Premana was fairly simple (1400m - 4600ft) and we managed to dodge a storm that hit as soon as we reached FALC hut. One hour later the sky cleared out and the sun dried everything out so we pitched with ease. We enjoyed the sunset view right on the valley below and cuddled while singing karaoke on our Spotify offline playlists (we made sure no one else was around) 😂
The next day we hiked down closing a loop that went up and down through the southern ridge of the valley. We stopped at S. Rita hut for coffee+cake and Ariaal hut for lunch.
We had 27km (16.7mi) under the belt and our feet were sore as we are still getting used to the extra weight for the 3p tent, dog food etc., but totally worth it. Working towards building up some more resistance and we will be off for longer trips.
Sunsets like these make up for at least 50% of the reasons why we do this ❤️
