타세노‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪10‬개의 산길

It is one of the most beautiful mountains in Valsassina

The climb to the Passo di Agueglio starts from Varenna on Lake Como. It is about 17 kilometers long with 1000 meters of elevation gain, follows a road that is sometimes narrow and passes through the town of Esino Lario. It has some ramps in double figures but in general it is a rideable climb that offers beautiful views of the Lario.

Situated at 1,898 metres above sea level, Colle Valsecchi is close to both the Rosalba refuge and the Grignetta peak, and is a crossroads for both of these destinations. Here the trail is equipped with a rope anchored to the rock and is not very easy to follow.

The Ghisallo climb is a legendary one.

VERY NICE PLACE FOR CYCLISTS

The walk is worth it and you have a great view.

The Ghisallo hill (Ghisall in Lombard) is a road pass that connects Valassina with the upper part of the Lariano Triangle. The crossing point, at an altitude of 754 m above sea level, is part of the municipality of Magreglio. A few meters from the pass there is a small church: the sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo. Its name (according to an ancient legend) derives from a certain Ghisallo who in medieval times was attacked by bandits in that place and made a vow to the Madonna to build a church in his honor if he escaped. The sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo The Ghisallo climb (from the north side) is traditionally covered by the Giro di Lombardia and has also been included several times in the route of the Giro d'Italia. For this reason, the Madonna del Ghisallo is particularly venerated by cyclists, and on the initiative of the then parish priest Don Ermelindo Viganò (1906–1985), in 1949 Pope Pius XII proclaimed her the universal patroness of cyclists. Next to the sanctuary you can find the Cycling Museum and the "Monument to the cyclist", designed and created by Elio Ponti, sculptor from Ponzate, Como. Source: Wikipedia

Super panoramic climb from Varenna to Passo Agueglio. Little traffic on weekends, just watch out for groups of motorcyclists who sometimes tend to cut corners too much. There is a bit of everything, hairpin bends, straight sections, significant slopes, especially at the beginning and end of the ascent, you pass by some villages and then through more wooded areas. Once you reach the top, a truly remarkable panorama opens up which, as they say, repays the effort. Watch out for the descent on the other side, the asphalt is in good condition and it's really fun to do but you often find rocks in the middle of the road.
