LOCATION
Farmhouse
"Sepiole di Nani",
old farmstead built in the 17th century at 1420 masl, surrounded by meadows and woods, reachable from
Bagolino on foot or by car if necessary (partially unpaved
consortium road) (more details here).
The farmhouse is tidy and spacious, but not (yet) fully
modernised: this means that it can be cold and humid, especially if it rains.
WHEN
From Friday to Sunday. The heart of the festival will be on Saturday between afternoon and evening,
with music and warm dinner in the barn.
COMFORT
The farmstead has walls, floors and a roof. There is a (cold, 8 °C) drinking water fountain.
There will be no hot water except for cooking (maaaaybe some for showering). Electricity will be
provided by a small generator set mainly for music and main lights, and rechargable lamps when the
generator is not running. Any additional electronic device (mobile phones and headlamps) will hardly be
able to be charged (with appropriate plug multipliers, cell phones can be charged when the generator set
is running). At the moment, there is no bathroom, but one WC and a rather convenient
and comfortable two-person latrine.
OVERNIGHT STAY
There is plenty of room to sleep in the farmhouse: about 20/25 places in "the room" (the only one),
comfortable and not so spiffy; about 20 other places in the attic, more quiet but also more spiffy;
countless other places in the barn, the coldest and spiffiest room. Some believe that the braves can
sleep at the ground floor in the stable.
There is then room for about 20 tents in the surrounding meadows. You'll need to bring everything that
is
necessary for sleeping (mattress, heavy sleeping bag, pillows, wool socks, hat, earplugs, etc.- more details here).
MEALS
The organization will think about feeding you with plenty of good food, for which we will ask a total
contribution of 15€ each (regardless of how long you will stay).
To drink (apart from fresh good water) juices and some red wine are provided by the organization, but
nothing else: since the needs are very subjective, we ask you to arrange to bring what you want
to drink. You will need personal bib, glass and cutlery. Tupperwares are highly recommended to take
away possible leftovers.
HOW TO GET THERE FROM BAGOLINO
OPTION 1 (RECOMMENDED) - frehsly re-established in 2024-2025 by Gian and some friends with a lot of dedication!
Route from Ponte Dasarè, which can only be covered on foot
in about 1h.
There should be space to park about 20 cars close to the starting point of the trail.
There are three parking spots close to the starting point of the trail: red parking, for about 10/15 cars; green parking, for about 5/7 cars; blue parking, for about 5/7 cars. Please, squeeze your cars in order to optimize the space!
OPTION 2:
Route from Bagolino , which can be covered by car in about 20 minutes
(if it is not freezing or too wet), with a pass for the consortium road
(let us know if you need to come by car so that we can arrange),
or on foot in about 2h30 (arriving in Bagolino by bus or parking the car in the car park where the trail
starts).
(Opening from the mobile phone, to go to Google Maps click the dotted box in the top right-hand corner).
IMPORTANT NOTE: since the 2025 edition, we try to leave most of the cars down, which means that we will ask you to most preferably go for the OPTION 1 :) Still, there will be 6 cars with the pass for the consortium road, which can bring up and down people and stuff.
