アルシエの峠・トップ19

アルシエにあるチーマ・ディ・カンポ（1,425～1,512 m）は、ベッルーノ・ドロミーティにある有名な山でアルプス越えの峠であり、サイクリングでの登り、第一次世界大戦のレオーネ要塞、ハイキングコースで有名です。 距離：アルシエの中心部から約18.5km。 標高差と勾配：標高差1,111メートル、平均勾配6%、メッラメとコル・ペレルへの最初の区間では二桁の勾配があります。 ドロミーティ・ベッルーネージの象徴的な最初の登りとして有名です。 レオーネ要塞：国境防衛のために1906年から1912年の間に建設された大きな装甲軍事要塞で、現在改修中です。

The pass itself doesn't stand out for anything special. Its last 2 km on the northern slope are beautiful, as it passes through the village of Aune. This pass is worth visiting for two reasons: first, because legend has it that Mr. Campagnolo invented the gear shift on a bicycle to reach its summit; second, because of the tradition of ringing the bell at the church at the foot of the road before reaching the village of Aune.

When you climb to Cima Campo the feeling is of being in a Swiss valley, so much order and peace...

... with its EIGHT hairpin bends ;-)

Thurs. October 12th '23 a car rally will be held on the public road that is not (!) closed. For the. For a long time I couldn't tell what was going on - until I noticed the folding chairs with the marshals... If available, the center line is the benchmark for the drivers and the hairpin bends are preferably driven on the inside: Have fun descending into the right-hand bends - there are always a few 'surprises'. I saw 2 Carabinieri vehicles on the way without any apparent surveillance activity - a third was taking care of an illegal parker. Well - I definitely won't be doing this (very nice) lap on this date again.

The man, the myth, the legend. It was upon this hill Campagnolo was inspired to develop his rear derailleur gear changing system!
