"Blessed P.G. Frassati" religious trail

It is thanks to the Italian Alpine Club, which embraced the initiative called "The Frassati Trails of Italy" in order to create a trail dedicated to the famous mountaineer in every Italian region, that Aprica along with Corteno Golgi boast the privilege of owning the one in Lombardy. From the village of Sant'Antonio, it climbs to Savrone, along an ancient path, leads to Premalt, then reaches the orographic disc (2000m), near Zappello dell'Asino, a magnificent viewpoint over Valtellina and part of Valle Camonica, finally reaching the chapel dedicated to S. Carlo, built next to the CAI Valtellina Refuge (1900m).

Nature trail "Wood is life"

From the Malga Magnolta to the CAI Valtellina Refuge, Trail 341 has been named the "Wood is Life" Thematic Trail, and along its route several bulletin boards have been placed with descriptive panels illustrating the importance of wood and lots of interesting facts about its functions. Inaugurated in August 2004, the trail in 2016 was adopted by Aprica elementary school children for the "School adopts a monument" project. The trail is very comfortable and easy to walk on without major differences in height, and in the central part there are beautiful views of the Rhaetian Alps.

Historical trail "Nobel Prize winner C. Golgi"

This is an easy trail, immersed mostly in the woods that runs between Aprica and Corteno Golgi. It is dedicated to Camillo Golgi, a distinguished researcher who received the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Surgery in 1906, the first Italian Nobel. He was originally from Corteno (locality named in his honor Corteno Golgi) and then, for decades was a guest in Aprica during summer vacations. Numerous descriptive panels regarding the biographical-scientific history of the luminary and the historical-environmental peculiarities of the place have been placed along the path. Along the way, it is possible to admire a fine example of a Venetian-style sawmill and in the immediate vicinity, the small church of S. Martino Franco (11th cent.), located on a rise.
