The excursions are also open to minors aged 10 and over: children between 10 and 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who takes their place.
Registrations will close when the maximum number of participants is reached or in any case on the Thursday before the day of the excursion.
Given the high demand that characterizes these initiatives every year and given that each event is necessarily open to a limited number of participants, those who register are required to show up or cancel as far in advance as possibleto allow other people to register and the best possible organization by the many professionals involved in the initiative.
This year, all participants will be able to collect a free accessory from the Lombardy Region at the start of each excursion.
