Road cycling
The road winds mercilessly up the mountain in steep switchbacks to the pass at 1,400 meters. This is a truly strenuous effort. Lake Maggiore is constantly in view, only the perspective changes with the altitude. Fortunately, there's very little traffic here, so road biking is a lot of fun if you're in good shape.

The climb that connects Gambarogno to the Neggia alp and subsequently to Maccagno is very demanding. Its almost 13 kilometers, in fact, have an average gradient of 9.5%. The climb passes through a forest, which makes the effort bearable and pleasant. From the summit it is possible to admire Lake Maggiore. The climb from the Italian side is longer but easier.

One of the most beautiful and hard climbs along the lake Maggiore. Truly unique landscape and shaded in summer.
