If you climb the Passo di Foscagno from Livigno, you have its slightly lower brother Passo Eira (2208 m) as a starter.
You start at roundabout San Antonio (center Livigno) and after the bridge over the Spöl river to the right begins the first climb through some hairpin bends. Overall not really difficult but here and there some steeper passages.
Regularly on the way beautiful panoramic views of the entire valley around your starting point.
Just before the first summit a spectacular downhill mountain bike track dives under the road.
After a steep descent the second climbing segment follows at the outside of the village of Trepalle. Slightly ascending with here and there a short, slightly steeper section (road sign 14) and some hairpin bends.
At the top there is a customs checkpoint (Guardia Finanza). But they assume that mountain bikers do not smuggle tax free tobacco/alcohol in their backpack.
At times there is a lot of tourist traffic and freight. The latter is forbidden on weekdays after 18h / Saturdays after 10h and completely on Sundays.
Nice two-part climb without extremes.
Als je de Passo di Foscagno vanuit Livigno opklimt heb je zijn iets lager broertje Passo Eira (2208 m) als voorgerecht.
Je start aan rond punt San Antonio (centrum Livigno) en na de brug over de Spöl rivier rechtsaf begint het eerste klimdeel via enkele haarspeldbochten. Globaal niet echt moeilijk maar hier en daar enkele steilere passages.
Regelmatig onderweg prachtige panoramische uitzichten op het volledige dal rond je vertrekplaats.
Vlak voor de eerste top duikt een spectaculaire downhill mountainbike piste onder de weg door.
Na stevige afdaling volgt bij buitenfietsen van dorpje Trepalle het tweede klimsegment in halfopen gaanderijen. Licht stijgend met hier en daar een kort iets steviger stukje (verkeersbord 14％) en enkele haarspeldbochten.
Op de top is er een douane controlepost (Guardia Finanza). Maar ze gingen er vanuit dat bergfietsers geen taxvrije tabak/alcohol in hun rugzakje smokkelen.
Bij momenten veel toeristisch verkeer en vrachtvervoer. Dit laatste is verboden op weekdagen na 18u/zaterdags na 10u en volledig op zondag.
Mooie tweedelige klim zonder extremen.
