ローヴェレド（GR）のおすすめランニングルート

Border pass between Italy and Switzerland, once an important route for smuggling and partisan warfare in the area. On the Italian side, the trail is easily accessible by mountain bike, although gravel riding is also a challenge, especially along the last two kilometers from Giovo. The pass is located at an altitude of 2,000 meters, and just below is the refuge of the same name. A stunning setting, largely untouched by human activity.

Open from June to September, this very welcoming refuge is located a few meters below the pass of the same name. The last 2 km are very difficult for gravel bikes, with a very rough road. The final section becomes paved with large stones, with gradients always above 10°. Stunning view and a large selection of snacks for those arriving.

Once you arrive in the town it is worth going a little longer to visit the Tower, formerly part of a residential building. One of the testimonies of the ancient life of the Valley.

In the middle of the woods, a huge natural monolith emerges which seems to guard the valley.

The Alp de la Piazza refuge is located in a clearing at 1535 m. Recently renovated from an old mountain pasture, the refuge is not guarded but is accessible. Inside there is a kitchen, a stove, three bunk beds.

The path passes next to a suggestive waterfall that forms from the Ria di Val Grona.

Ruins of an old mill.

The tower, which dominates the Church of Santa Maria Assunta, was built in the 14th century. The lower floor was used as a cistern while the two upper floors were equipped with a fireplace for heating, rooms and a latrine. The building was topped by a defensive platform. From the roof terrace you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the valley.
