바보‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산 정상

해발 2,387미터에 위치한 페닌 알프스의 탁 트인 전망을 자랑하는 우아한 봉우리로, 그레소네이-생-장과 브뤼송 국경의 몬테 로사 발도스타 산기슭에 자리 잡고 있습니다. 등반은 잘 표시된 산악 하이킹 트레일을 따라 진행되지만, 탁월한 자연 발코니를 제공하는 탁 트인 능선으로 절정에 이릅니다. 이 특별한 지점에서 시선은 몬테 로사 산괴의 장엄한 얼음 벽과 아래의 푸른 계곡을 360도로 자유롭게 조망할 수 있으며, 정상에 도달하는 모든 사람에게 만족스러운 정복감을 선사합니다.

sanctuary about ten km above Biella, reachable by road bike along the only road from Biella, from Andrate, a town above Ivrea with the road called "Tracciolino" from Favaro, just above Biella by mountain bike along the route of the old train

The path to the Sanctuary of Oropa is a journey through nature, history, and spirituality: trails pass through ancient forests, hills, and charming villages, all the way up to the majestic Biella mountains. The itineraries, at times challenging, test your pace and endurance, but reward you with breathtaking views and the unique thrill of reaching one of Piedmont's most fascinating sacred sites.

The sanctuary of Oropa is a Marian sanctuary - dedicated to the Black Madonna - located a dozen kilometers north of the city of Biella, in the Oropa hamlet, at about 1,280 meters above sea level, in a natural amphitheater of mountains that surround the city below and are part of the Biella Alps. The sanctuary includes, in addition to a Sacred Mount (the Sacred Mount of Oropa), the original church built on the basis of an ancient shrine and the current sanctuary itself, equipped with various structures intended to accommodate the faithful and tourists. And it is also the Arrival of the Stage of the Giro d'Italia. The most famous one was in 1999 with the comeback of Marco Pantani who went on to win the Stage (Arrival dedicated to Him).

As an excursion I have continued several times to Cima Mucrone, passing by "Limbo", while when there is snow and it is good, ski-skins and climb up to here or to the ridge a little higher. From here I have also started several times with the paraglider. Panoramic and beautiful point that lends itself to many experiences, not forgetting a thought to the blessed Frassati

Oropa, definitely worth a visit. Not only is it fascinating in terms of history, but also because of the surrounding restaurants. And last but not least, the Black Madonna.
