ヴァルフルヴァのおすすめランニングルート

An iconic destination, requiring good training and knowing that even with an e-bike, the last stretch requires pushing (walk mode is a must). A good training ground for honing your riding technique on technical climbs with e-MTB assistance, and tackling the steps with momentum. On the descent, it's safer to walk the first tight switchbacks without risk. With a mountain bike, they're more manageable with a nose press. The next short section, with steps and a short ledge, can be done on foot, taking your time and using the brakes correctly, depending on the grip of the terrain at each point. If desired, you can secure your e-bike with a sliding cord to the metal cable on the wall. I had it with me, but didn't need it. The descent is beautiful. I recommend not taking the path to the 5° Alpini refuge. It's not very pedal-friendly.

Extremely helpful manager! He welcomed me at 9:30 PM on Sunday, having made a reservation only a couple of days earlier. The next morning, he was very attentive in understanding where I was planning to go by bike, and offered me advice. The rest of the staff also provided exceptional hospitality and friendliness. Even without a CAI discount because it's a private refuge, the prices are still reasonable, especially considering the high quality (breakfast buffet like at a hotel).

It's practically impossible to ride by bike because the ramp is extremely steep and there's far too much loose gravel. Even on foot, it's difficult and very dangerous (especially downhill).

Along the road leading back to Santa Caterina is this welcoming refuge that offers tasty dishes

The Forni Refuge, located in the Stelvio National Park at 2,000 meters above sea level, is an excellent starting and arrival point for many sporting activities in the Forni and Cedec valleys. It has a restaurant serving excellent traditional dishes and rooms for overnight stays.

Rest stop at the end of the Cedec Valley at the foot of Gran Zebrù, Cevedale, and Pizzo Tresero. An initial refuge, destroyed during the Great War, was rebuilt in 1926 and dedicated to the memory of Luigi E. Pizzini, a renowned Milanese mountaineer. Renewed and renovated in 1982 thanks to the legacy of Mrs. Mayr Frattola, it took the new name "Pizzini-Frattola" in memory of Alpine General Carlo Frattola and his son Augusto, who died on the Cima Grande di Lavaredo.

Destination reached in one of the most beautiful villages of the upper Valtellina in the heart of the Stevio National Park from here numerous paths start that lead to the foot of the glaciers

Great view over the Zebru valley far into Switzerland, as well as the Königsspitze (Gran Zebru) and the Fornigletscher.
