テネロコントラの峠・トップ6

If the snow line drops, there will be snow on the Moleno Valley side, and it won't melt away quickly (the sun doesn't even shine in October). This makes this route on the steep slope truly challenging without spikes or poles. The descents from both sides, in particular, should be approached with extreme caution.

The car lane is fast but the bike lane with yellow line marking the car lane is fantastic

always very busy, unfortunately the only way to Sottoceneri

Extremely dangerous road for cyclists. Cars speed by at 100 miles per hour and the bike lane certainly doesn't feel safe.

Many worthwhile trails in the area!

Bocchetta d'Erbea is located between the Gaggio valley and the Molena valley. It is a narrow opening in the rock that divides two very different valleys. The Gaggio valley is green, that of Molena is mainly stony.

6.6 km long climb on cycle path next to the road. It has a vertical drop of 352 meters and an average gradient of 5.3% The first hairpin bends touch an 8% gradient for the rest it's all around 5-6%

Admittedly, the Monte Ceneri pass is neither particularly beautiful nor spectacular. But on the northern driveway you have a beautiful view of the Ticino valley and as soon as you leave the main road in the south, it becomes idyllic.
