エージネの峠・トップ20

wonderful view of the valley below

I've done it twice in the same lap, first from Desso, then after climbing Monte Pora. They're completely different. From Desso, it's long and always in double digits, with significant peaks, so take it with a pinch of salt; the other is rideable. Seeing is believing. 🚴‍♀️

Nice climb with fantastic views.

Long climb but with not very difficult slopes.

It is highly recommended to go there in high season on holidays. Half an hour to find parking and too many people, especially on the path that leads to the refuge. Cassinelli: unlivable.

A famous pass in the Brescian Pre-Alps, the Crocedomini has a very long history (it is said that Emperor Frederick Barbarossa passed through here in the 12th century) and is almost 1,900 meters above sea level. It represents a real challenge for those who decide to tackle it by bicycle: from Bagolino it is a 22 kilometer climb at an average 5%, while the Breno side is even harder, around 20 kilometers at an average 7.5%. You can also get to Crocedomini in a third way, that is, through the splendid partly dirt road (very simple gravel) that comes from the south, from the Maniva pass.

Yesterday we descended here. The road surface has been largely renewed. Was fine to descend.

Quite long and hard stride
