ルミノの峠・トップ15

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.

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.

Long climb up the pass, but really beautiful and very pleasant to ride

The Giovo Refuge is closed and unattended, in order to stay there you must ask for the keys in advance at the Sant'Anna restaurant in Germasino. Here you can leave the car to go up to Passo San Jorio or to continue on other paths. The road that gets here is not the best, as a large part of it is dirt, but with the right attention it is not a big problem.

Very nice pass, drive and enjoy

Wonderful view

Crossroads of itineraries located along the high road of the Larian mountains, a stage connects the Giovo refuge to the Menaggio refuge and the via del ferro, crossing from the Morobbia valley to the Cavargna valley. https://www.ticino.ch/it/itineraries/details/La-Via-del-Ferro-in-Valle-Morobbia/139294.html

Fantastic location. Nice to sit outside on nice days.
