アウラーノの絶景の山頂・トップ20

a classic from the Varese area. It's worth it.

The Monto Rosso rises directly from the city of Verbania. The summit does not reach an impressive height, but it is ideal for a short, brisk mountain run. The 400 meters of elevation can be conquered either on the winding road or, far more fun, on steep trails. From the summit you have a beautiful view over the Golfo Borromeo and towards Omegna.

Beautiful passage with little traffic and asphalt in good condition.

A beautiful climb leads to this pass, which is very famous among bikers in the area and also beautiful for a nice cycling trip. There are no views from the pass, but the two roads that lead to it are very scenic with views of the lakes!

The Scopello pass is located at 970 meters above sea level and connects Cannobio, on Lake Maggiore, with Santa Maria Maggiore and the Vigezzo valley. The top of the pass is dedicated to the cyclist Marco Pantani.

The Cuvignone pass, located at an altitude of 1,050 meters, connects Valcuvia with Luinese. This pass can be reached from three different sides: the most famous is the one that starts from Cittiglio, the town where Alfredo Binda was born. Various hiking trails start from the pass that allow you to admire Lake Maggiore.

The road from Cittiglio to Passo Cuvignone has a few strips where the asphalt has been scraped out. It's totally doable on the bike but you have to take it easy not to damage your front wheel. Some short parts are 16-17%, according to my Garmin. During the descent towards San Michele you have to look out as there are many small rocks/stones on the road, as well as some twigs here and there. Great ride though, partially forest with some great views.

The ride up Monte Rosso is rewarded with a beautiful view
