サンヴィットーレの峠・トップ16

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

Compared to other passes in the Calanca massif, this transition is easy from an alpine point of view, especially if you can drive to Alp de Bec-Sot by car or alpine taxi. Since the area is relatively lonely, the alpine vegetation can be enjoyed all the more.

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.

The return from the San Jorio pass can only pass from trail s2 first and then on this track, very smooth and fun. We pass through Brenzeglio and Quansc and then arrive in Garzeno. It has been recently fixed and therefore the bottom is quite loose but still easy to walk.
