ビバーのおすすめライド

ラ・プントでの短い休憩は価値があります。これは主に、人目を引く白い家、チェーザ・メルレダによるものです。これはエンガディン建築の顕著な例です。

A poignant reminder that most things you cycle can be dangerous.

Albula Pass, a beautiful road up from Tiefencastel, with several tough sections before Bergün, and very little traffic! Full of great places to stop for a snack, the road climbs parallel to a railway line that occasionally shows itself from the road, offering great views.

Almost flat stretch of road after the Albula Pass, spectacular views in both directions on clear days, with the peaks following one another on both sides of the road.

Bever is a charming village in the Upper Engadine, known for its elegant Engadine-style houses, adorned with sgraffito and characteristic bay windows. Nestled in a flat valley, it is surrounded by vast meadows and forests, and crossed by the river of the same name. The tranquility and beauty of the landscape make it an ideal destination for those seeking relaxation and contact with nature. Bever is also a starting point for numerous hikes.

The barely 9 km separating the pass (from 1,720 m at La Punt to 2,315 m at the Passo del Toro) gains approximately 640 m of elevation gain, with an average gradient of around 7% and a couple of ramps reaching 10%-11% in the central hairpin bends. Traffic remains surprisingly light, as most cars detour to the more convenient Julier Pass. There are 9 hairpin bends in total: the first 3-4 immediately after the sharp turn outside the village (at 1,700-1,800 m), very close together and with moderate gradients; further hairpin bends follow, spaced further apart, until reaching the 9th hairpin bend at around 2,070 m, after a total climb of 4 km.
