Always evaluate the snow conditions on the road and stop when it is no longer passable) We park the car next to the road where it ends. <\/p>\n\n<p>We then follow the CAI 120 trailmark, which climbs the mountain side through a beautiful beech forest. Once we reach a mountain hut, the forest gives way to wide meadows and the view opens up on the monte Resegone. The path now turns to the right and soon reaches the Gherardi mountain refuge. This refuge is managed by volunteers of the association &#8220;Operazione Mato Grosso&#8221; and the proceeds are entirely donated to charity. <\/p>\n\n<p>In the winter season, the shelter is usually closed, but it is possible to stop on its outside benches for a well-deserved picnic. In fact, the shelter is located in a wide and sunny plateau, with a grand view of Resegone and the Lombard plain, and even on sunny winter days it is pleasant to stay outdoors.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"snowshoe hike to Gherardi mountain shelter - BergamoXP\" class=\"wp-image-10041\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-230x230.jpg 230w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/BergamoXP_Ciaspolata_Gherardi_Rifugio_valle.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">snowshoe hike to Gherardi mountain shelter &#8211; BergamoXP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p>The return takes place along the same itinerary as the ascent.
