カッシーリオでののおすすめグラベルライド

former ski hotel

at the lakes of Ponteranica

Piani dell'Avaro, from here various paths branch off either uphill (Ponteranica lakes or S.Marco pass) or downhill, such as Terza Avaro

Instead of a slice of cake, homemade bread with mountain butter and blueberry jam is much better 🔝

Please note that the paths pass through pastures with free-ranging cattle

Border pass between Fusine and Foppolo (Bergamo). It's a pass steeped in history, with the Cadorna trenches. The road from Fusine (Valtellina) is wide and easily cycled.

Pedalable climb up to Cosio, the last village before the 7.5 km at 9% average that lead to Piani dell’Avaro. In the final stretch panoramic hairpin bends and waterfalls. At the top I recommend the Al Ciar bar/restaurant
