Don Guanella: where does stage one end?
Two first stages set out from Campodolcino under Don Guanella’s name. The organiser takes walkers through Fraciscio and Gualdera to Gallivaggio. Appy’s stage ends in San Giacomo Filippo. Before booking the first night, put the address of your bed beside the last point on the track you intend to walk.

If you want to stop at Gallivaggio
Follow the organiser’s map one name at a time: Campodolcino, Fraciscio, Gualdera, Gallivaggio. Fraciscio is where to look for Don Guanella’s birthplace. Gallivaggio is the place to compare with your overnight address if this is the stage you plan to follow.

If your booking is in San Giacomo Filippo
Appy labels the opening stage “Campodolcino → San Giacomo Filippo”. Use that division when pairing it with the following stage from San Giacomo Filippo to Chiavenna. For a night in Gallivaggio, measure the day on the map you plan to follow to Gallivaggio. A stage distance belongs to a particular pair of endpoints.
A shorter outing between Fraciscio and Gualdera
The M1 meditation walk starts in Fraciscio, passes the Rabbiosa stream and ends in Gualdera. If you choose this shorter walk, arrange your return from Gualdera.
Arrange the journey from your actual endpoint
Someone picking you up needs more than “the end of stage one”. Send the town name and meeting point. If you plan to use public transport, confirm the stop and timetable for your travel date with the local operator and check the walk from the trail to that stop.
Follow the stage in Appy
For Appy’s 25.7 km walk to San Giacomo Filippo, open stage one in the app. The GPX track and turn-by-turn directions are available there.
Before you go
- Write down the finishing town and the date
- Open the chosen track and mark the accommodation address
- Plan the return or next stage from that finishing point
