로카비오네‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪13‬개의 산길

모든 계절에 적합한 훌륭한 햇볕 노출을 갖춘 아름다운 언덕입니다. Limone Piemonte와 Vernante의 목초지 경계를 표시합니다. 근처 Monte Vecchio로 올라가는 경로가 이곳을 통과합니다.

great view

Hill at the confluence between the path that comes from Bernezzo and the dirt road that comes from Chiot Rosa. From here you can easily reach Mount Tamone

Beautiful panoramic point that enters a thick fir forest, often characterized by a very suggestive mist. There are 3 comfortable benches made of carved trunks, very beautiful and in harmony with the environment. Beautiful view also of the surrounding mountains and possibility via a poorly marked path to reach the summit of Mount Lausa.

From the Santuario della Madonna del Colletto there are good views of Monte Gelas, a solitary peak of over 3,000 metres and reminiscent of the highest peaks of the Alps.

I was really looking forward to going up to the Santuario della Madonna del Colletto. I had been to this area several times and had not had the opportunity to go up here. So on the trip through Piedmont in July 2022 I made sure that the planned route passed through here. We went up the western slope, the one used by the Giro d'Italia when it first went up here in 1999, on the famous stage where the Fauniera was climbed, with the spectacle of Pantani climbing and the stratospheric descent of Paolo Savoldelli. I have to admit that the climb itself is not very attractive. Once you leave the village of Festiona behind, you enter a forest and there are hardly any views over the valley. You can only focus on the road, its curves, straights (which there are) and difficult slopes. The asphalt is old, with a lot of gravel and very uneven, which obviously adds difficulty to the climb. The climb up the western side is 7.1 km, 576 metres of elevation and an average gradient of 8.1%. Therefore, it is very hard!! And there are several sections above 12%, especially in the first kilometres, where the gradient is irregular, with very hard sections and small rest areas. The views of the Valdieri valley from the Sanctuary are very beautiful, and also of all the mountains covered with forests and vegetation in the surroundings. We took advantage of the porch at the entrance to the Sanctuary to take shelter from the sun and the heat, and to stock up on food and eat some spectacular sandwiches. I remember it fondly. Below is the altimetry of the climb published by @cyclingcols, the best in these matters --> http://www.cyclingcols.com/col/Colletto

Mount Gelas is clearly visible from Entracque. I recommend the climbs towards the lake of the Ruins and towards San Giacomo, where the road ends and the trekking towards refuges and beautiful valleys begins. Excellent starting point for MTB tours but you have to take Portage into account.

Extremely panoramic hill and crossroads towards Bec Baral and Monte Vecchio
