마데시모 최고의 라이딩 경로

After a challenging climb with many switchbacks, the route offers a longer, flatter section along the reservoir, allowing road cyclists a breather and great views. The paved road surface is well-maintained, ideal for anyone seeking a mix of athletic challenge and scenic enjoyment.

The ride through the famous Via Mala Gorge is a true highlight for road cyclists. The narrow, winding road winds spectacularly between steep rock faces, combining a challenging ride with impressive scenery. The asphalt is well-ridable, but you should expect tight bends, changing light, and heavy traffic—so it's best to ride in the early morning or late afternoon. A quick stop at the viewpoints is worthwhile to experience the magnificent views down into the gorge.

Since, as is often the case, the pass signs are completely covered with stickers, taking photos in front of them is no longer fun. Alternatively, you can use the boundary stone to take a "proof photo." On the other side of the road, there's another, smaller stone with the elevation: 2113 m.

Traffic-free alternative to busy roads.

The bike path mostly runs close to the lakeshore. On hot days, be sure to stop and stretch your feet!

Absolutely impressive serpentine section! Be careful in the unlit tunnels!

Driving through these tunnels is a real highlight, but lights and a safety vest are recommended, as the tunnels are not lit!

51 switchbacks down into the valley. All numbered! It's simply a joy. But be careful in the unlit tunnels and galleries.
