Piandera – Panorama Trail – Piandera

The route starts in the small Ticino village Piandera and initially climbs gently towards Cimadera. From here the ascent becomes steeper and the pulse higher. Shortly before Capanna Pairolo it goes from the forest road onto a single trail, uphill. This becomes easier and also flatter again higher up. At Bocchetta di San Bernardo the border to Italy is crossed and with good visibility you can see Lake Como. A fantastic panorama trail goes to the Rifugio San Lucio. The only rest opportunity. From the village Cardaiolo there is also the possibility to ride directly up to the refuge and shorten the route. Now follows an up and down, a trail more than 8 km long towards Monte Bar, always along the mountain flank. The panorama is breathtaking. Only at two spots do you have to push the bike briefly. Soon follows a flowing trail towards Signora. A mix of flowing and technical passages. On the road it goes back to the start in Piandera.
