인쿠딘‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

A very tough climb from any side you choose to do it.

Whichever side you pedal, the pass is always a spectacle of nature…

A challenge against oneself

After passing the Sandro Occhi refuge, Lake Aviolo shows itself in all its splendid beauty, with the majestic peaks of the Baitone group and its glaciers in the background. It is a truly magical and relaxing place. The trails near the lodge are flat and easy to walk, but as you get further away from the lodge, the trail becomes very rough, with rocky terrain. Running is definitely possible, but you have to be careful where you put your feet.

Cima Rovaia offers an extraordinary view of all the mountains of the upper Camonica Valley: from the very close Mattaciul, to Baitone, Aviolo, Pagano, the Cime di Grom, the Tremoncelli, the Pietra Rossa Group and the Corno del Tirlo. The path to reach this peak from Vezza d'Oglio is an ancient military route from the Great War. While quite steep, it is technically simple. To reach the real top, you need to overcome some boulders. Around the top is a stone entrenchment and an open-air museum with information panels.

Beautiful lake easily reachable from vezza d'oglio (with a little training)

The Mortirolo is one of the most loved and feared passes by those who cycle in northern Italy. Located in Lombardy, it connects the towns of Mazzo, Tovo Sant'Agata, Edolo and Monno, thus uniting Valtellina with Val Camonica. The slopes, especially on the Mazzo and Tovo slopes, are very challenging. On these ramps Marco Pantani, in 1994, accomplished one of his most memorable feats: a statue is dedicated to him towards the middle of the Mazzo slope.
