ポンテインヴァルテリーナの峠・トップ20

We started from Prato Valentino, a long but not demanding route. Very beautiful! Also, despite it being November, the temperatures were around 20 degrees

Excellent halfway point for sky running lovers. If you arrive from Val Poschiavino there is a short passage on easy rocks, before arriving at the area with the lakes below (always on the Swiss-Italian border). Arriving from the Campagneda lakes the path becomes difficult to climb, with some sections of debris, but quite simple to follow, always paying attention. From Switzerland you can also get there by MTB, but due to the morphology of the other paths it is advisable to return from where you arrived.

It connects the Poschiavina valley with the Cristina and Ca Runcasch refuges

For inexperienced hikers it is the final point reachable before Pizzo Coca. It enjoys one of the most breathtaking views of all the Orobie Alps. It is no coincidence that, a few meters higher, there is one of the three peaks that exceed 3000m in the Orobie.

The Belviso pass, with its panoramic position, stands as a gateway to enchanting mountain scenery. The descent and ascent through the paths offer an adventure full of challenges and exciting views, giving an authentic experience amidst the majesty of the Orobie.

The flat pass of Colle d'Anzana offers a fantastic panorama and marks the border between Switzerland and Italy, uniting Valposchiavo with Teglio in Valtellina. It is one of the easiest steps to pass from Italy to Switzerland and has therefore always been linked to smuggling. During the Second World War, it was one of the most frequent escape routes chosen by Jews fleeing from Italy.

Col d'Anzana is the easiest pass that connects Valtellina to Val Saiento, marking the border between Italy and Switzerland. Despite the modest altitude of 2,224 metres, the pass offers extraordinary views. The best known route to reach the pass is the one from Tirano, with a vertical drop of 1,800 metres. On both sides, the terrain is non-technical but consistently steep, making it a demanding physical challenge, especially the climb. Running while you go down is a lot of fun.
