We park near the Hotel-Rifugio Monte Avaro and then walk along the dirt road that will take us to the entrance of the CAI 109 hiking trail. <\/p>\n\n<p>Following this trail, we trek along the slopes of Monte Triomen. When we reach a fork in the path, we take the right path to connect to the CAI 101 trail, which we follow. When we reach a second fork, we leave the 101 trail and follow the signs towards the lakes, which are now close by. After a short climb, we finally arrive at these three magnificent lakes.<\/p>\n\n<p>The return is on the same route as the outward journey. <\/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=\"1000\" height=\"625\" src=\"https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Lakes of Ponteranica - BergamoXP\" class=\"wp-image-15484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lakes of Ponteranica &#8211; BergamoXP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p>This hike is not particularly difficult, requiring only a minimum amount of training.<\/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 loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"625\" src=\"https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/4.jpg\" alt=\"Lakes of Ponteranica - BergamoXP\" class=\"wp-image-15486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/4.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/4-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/4-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bergamoxp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/4-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lakes of Ponteranica &#8211; BergamoXP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p>You can find the interactive map of the route, complete with altitude and downloadable GPS track, at this <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/Laghi_ponteranica_bgxp\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p> <em>Always organize your trips with care, choose appropriate equipment, and verify the itinerary before embarking on it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>BergamoXP<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p id=\"bergamoxp\">BergamoXP is the first aquatic sports center in the province of Bergamo.
