The Tagliata del Ponale hike, promoted by the CAI Salò section, is scheduled for Sunday, 26 April 2026. Participants should meet at 7:00 a.m. at the Centro Agricolo di Salò, with departure at 7:10 after a breakfast stop in Limone, then proceed to Riva, the starting point of the route that runs through more than a kilometer of galleries, stairs and rock-cut stations. The trek features about 200 meters of elevation gain and over 300 steps, spread across five levels with access to tunnels and lake-view observation points.
The guided excursion, led by Sergio Boem with a local guide, lasts about three hours including the fortress visit and ends in the early afternoon. Attendees may bring a packed lunch or remain in Riva afterward. Equipment required includes standard trekking gear and a headlamp, mandatory for the galleries. Registrations are open until Friday, 24 April. For non-members, a €15 CAI contribution applies, covering insurance.
