A really fun way to see lake Garda from above. Nothing overly technical or physically demanding, but a cool experience.

Fantastic hike with an amazing guide Marco. The views were amazing and Marco was very informative. We definetley hiked higher with Marco than we would have done without him.

Great experience with Andre on Santinero di Cintrabbadieri! Highly recomended - awsome views with a great company:)

I had an amazing day out with Andrea on the Sentiero di Contrabbandieri. An interesting walk for an old climber. Highly recommended for an exciting, but very safe, experience.

Sehr schöner Felspfad, mit genialen Blicken auf den Gardasee und ein paar kurzen Klettersteig-Passagen. Eigentlich ist diese Tour "betreutes" Gehen in einer Seilschaft. Das macht es aber wieder zu einem tollen Erlebnis, man kann sich deshalb mehr auf die Umgebung konzentrieren. Unser Guide Gabriel war ein sehr netter und erfahrener Guide, vielen Dank für das Guiding. Cheers aus dem Black Forest, Rudi 👍🤗

Wir haben den Schmugglerweg in Begleitung eines erfahrenen Bergführers beschritten. Der Guide war sehr freundlich und hat durch seine kompetente Ausstrahlung Sicherheit vermittelt. Gerne buchen wir nächstes Jahr wieder eine Tour 😉

Bellissimo percorso panoramico a picco sull'alto Garda, esperienza entusiasmante sotto tutti i punti di vista, bello poterlo percorrere in gruppo e in sicurezza sotto la supervisione competente della guida alpina!

Wer am Gardasee Urlaub macht und dem direkten Trubel am See entgehen möchte, ist in Arco genau richtig - und hier wiederum genau richtig bei Mmove. Ich war das 2. Mal mit Mmove auf dem alten Schmugglerpfad in luftiger Höhe über dem Gardasee unterwegs und es war beide Male ein ganz prägendes und unverwechselbares Erlebnis. Von der Anmeldung über die Durchführung bis zur Verabschiedung am Ende eines aufregenden Nachmittags läuft alles freundlich, professionell und selbst unter Coronabedingungen mit höchster Sicherheit ab. Unser Guide Andrea vermittelte Ruhe und fröhliche Gastgeberschaft und mit seiner Erfahrung meisterte er auch die kribbeligen Situationen, die an den 2 bis 3 Schlüsselstellen der Ferrata unweigerlich auftraten. So wurde der Nachmittag für alle zu einem positiven Erlebnis.
