- Start: Antrona
- Destination: Cingino mountain hut
1st stage: The start of the hike should actually be the Simplon Pass, but since Antrona is the lowest point of the entire hike, with a considerable altitude difference and a non-managed mountain hut, our hike begins in this village. We are in the Antronatal Park, in a very fascinating area. The lakes of Antrona and Campliccioli, the ancient conifer trees, the sharp peaks, and the spectacle of the ibexes on the Cingino dam make the passage of this first section very pleasant.
