Starting from Santa Maria Maggiore towards Crana and Toceno then from Craveggia up to the Blitz first part just after the restaurant La Vasca more challenging I would say up to the 'Camoscio'. Short but training.

Partito da Santa Maria Maggiore verso Crana e Toceno poi da craveggia salito al Blitz prima parte appena dopo il ristorante La Vasca più impegnativa direi fino al “Camoscio”. Breve ma allenante.

Steep ascent that can be demanding in the heat. Less scenic than others in the Vigezzo Valley.

Salita "a gradoni" che col caldo può risultare impegnativa. Meno panoramica di altre nella val Vigezzo.
