メウリアーノの峠・トップ10

Remarkable views and very nice MTB route, partly challenging

In reality, this place is not so "flat" because, from when the slopes become less steep to when the descent begins, there will not even be a hundred meters ... but the environment is superb, high mountain, and makes up for the road that, especially towards Frassinetto, is not in such good condition. There is nothing, not a bar, not a fountain ... but it is worth stopping and admiring the splendid panorama. Going up from Frassinetto the slope, after the village, becomes discontinuous and challenging, more gradual if you go up from Colleretto Castelnuovo, where the road alternates beautiful hairpin bends in the woods ... however, it is not a gift from this side either!

It's a shame that the sign indicating it has disappeared.

It's just a high point on the dirt road. Not a single geese in sight.

You can enjoy a splendid panorama, up to Monviso.

Detour point, between the Monte Calvo itinerary and descent on singletrack trails towards the valley floor and Ivrea.

The Oca Pass is a pass on the Serra di Ivrea ridge, a glacial moraine that extends between the Canavese and Biella areas. The pass can be reached from various paths that cross woods, lakes and historical sites such as the Torre della Bastia and the Ciucarun.

A nice climb with perfect asphalt.
