コルナ・イマーニャのおすすめランニングルート

It is possible to reach the sanctuary via a path that starts from Costa Imagna

The Cornabusa Sanctuary, located in the heart of the Imagna Valley, is one of the most evocative sanctuaries in Lombardy. Built inside a natural cave, the sanctuary is dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows, venerated in this place since the 16th century. The church has been expanded over the years, while maintaining the charm of the original place of worship carved into the rock. The sanctuary is a destination for pilgrimages and is appreciated for its spiritual atmosphere and spectacular panoramic view of the surrounding valley.

Beautiful sanctuary! Very well known in the valley. Very popular with the faithful. Worth a visit. The climb from the main road is challenging. About 2 km with an average gradient of about 9% (4-5 hairpin bends).

Entirely on the road. Convenient free parking at the start.

Beautiful gravel road that is not very frequented, with a nice bottom, which goes down to S.Omobono.

For passionate cyclists, in 1965 Gimondi came to the Madonna della Cornabusa to honor his ex voto for winning the Tour de France. For the faithful and tourists, an impressive sanctuary located in a cave where a source of water flows, born in the fifteenth century during the struggle between the Guelphs and the Ghibellines, enjoys an excellent view of the Imagna valley.
