Cima di Medeglia/1260 m

The wide pastures on top of Cima di Medeglia

 

If you look at it from the bottom, on Piano di Magadino, Cima di Medeglia appears like an uninteresting woody hill, something you don't ever want to visit. Only if you go up there you realize how wrong this impression is: you will ride on amazing gravel roads, see enchanting landscapes, and go through magical atmospheres. A new world that remains hidden to the eyes of the people down on the planes, who just look up and shake their heads.

 

This tour stars in Robasacco and climbs to Cima di Medeglia on a relatively easy fire road. On the contrary the descent is very hard and bumpy, and requires good technical skills to be accomplished safely.
