beautiful path that leads to the Lissone refuge

The Scale dell’Adamè is a suggestive stretch of path that connects Malga Lincino (about 1,600 m) to the spectacular Valle Adamè, in the Adamello Park. It is an ancient military mule track, built during the First World War, which overcomes a difference in altitude of about 400 meters through a series of stone steps and hairpin bends set in the rock. The route: starts from the base of the cable car of the Rifugio Città di Lissone; it develops in the shade in the morning, among larches, rhododendrons and smooth rocks; it is well protected by wooden fences, but requires a sure step and trekking boots, especially on the descent, when the steps can be slippery. Once you have passed the Scale, you enter the Valle Adamè, a U-shaped glacial basin, crossed by the Poia torrent and surrounded by imposing peaks such as Monte Fumo and Corno dell’Adamè. From there you can continue towards the Rifugio Città di Lissone or the Baita Adamè, or venture towards the Vedretta dell’Adamè or the Bivacco Ceco Baroni. It is a short but intense stretch, which gives a true sense of conquest and a spectacular entrance into one of the most fascinating valleys of the Alpine arc.

The Rifugio Città di Lissone is located at 2,020 meters above sea level, in the heart of the Adamè Valley, in the Adamello Regional Park, in the municipality of Saviore dell’Adamello (BS). It is a much-loved destination for hikers, families and mountaineers, thanks to its spectacular location at the foot of the Adamello and the ease of access from Malga Lincino (about 1 hour's walk, 400 m of altitude difference). Originally an ENEL building, it was used as a barracks during the White War and transformed into a refuge by the CAI of Lissone in the 1970s. After a fire in 1986, it was rebuilt and reopened in 1991. Today it offers 70 beds, cuisine with local products (including from nearby Malga Adamè), and a warm welcome from the managers, both ski mountaineering instructors. The refuge is a starting point for: excursions towards Corno di Grevo (also via ferrata), crossings towards Rifugio Baita Adamè, historical explorations along the paths of the Great War.

Near Ponte di Legno, Parco Sozzine is a great place to get closer to mountain life with the whole family. The Oglio Narcanello stream flows here, which – merging with the Frigidolfo – forms the actual Oglio. There is also a children's playground made entirely of wood.

In the Sozzine area, along the Oglio Narcanello stream, an old stone dam appears to have been abandoned: this is also why it is characteristic.

The town of Sonico stands on a hill, on the left bank of the Oglio, on the banks of the Valli Grandi stream. All around, on the slope to the east as in the stretches of plain, you can see ancient fields, meadows, copses and centuries-old fruit-bearing chestnut groves. In the medieval historic center with Piazza IV Novembre there are towers and houses of the Federici di Sonico, the parish church of San Lorenzo, the small church of San Giuseppe, while to the north, just beyond the Pradella district, stands the sanctuary of the Madonna known as Pradella . In the second half of the 20th century, urban development took place especially on the slope sloping down towards the state road, along its variants.
