A mini Valcava. The first part in fact coincides with the profile leading to the summit of the queen of the Orobic Pre-Alps. After a few kilometers from the town of Torre de Busi, you come to a junction at which you must continue straight towards Colle di Sogno. From here start just over 4km of fairly steady climbing except for the last kilometer where the gradients harden to 11/12%. Perfect climb to make leg or when you don't have the desire/time or training to challenge Valcava. A closed-... read more

A mini Valcava. The first part in fact coincides with the profile leading to the summit of the queen of the Orobic Pre-Alps. After a few kilometers from the town of Torre de Busi, you come to a junction at which you must continue straight towards Colle di Sogno. From here start just over 4km of fairly steady climbing except for the last kilometer where the gradients harden to 11/12%. Perfect climb to make leg or when you don't have the desire/time or training to challenge Valcava. A closed-bottom climb, once you get to the little roundabout that marks the end of the climb, I recommend continuing to the small village of Sogno and refresh yourself at the typical Locanda.

Una mini Valcava. La prima parte difatti coincide con il profilo che conduce alla vetta della regina delle prealpi orobiche. Dopo qualche km dall’abitato di Torre de Busi, si arriva ad un bivio al quale si deve proseguire dritti verso Colle di Sogno. Da qui partono poco più di 4km di salita abbastanza regolare eccetto per l’ultimo chilometro dove le pendenze induriscono fino ad arrivare all’11/12%. Salita perfetta per far gamba o quando non si ha voglia/tempo o l’allenamento per sfidare la Valcava. Salita a fondo chiuso, una volta arrivati alla rotondina che segna la fine della salita, vi consiglio di proseguire fino al piccolo borgo di Sogno e ristoravi alla Locanda tipica.

Climbing Dream or Climbing Dream? Both! Beautiful climb, often in the woods so good in summer, it is divided into two parts, the common one to Valcava, very busy and with tight bends ... and the one from the junction x Sogno, quiet and fresh ... beautiful! Last km very hard, conserve some energy! To be done! Beautiful views in the green

Salita verso Sogno o un Sogno di salita? Entrambe! Bella salita spesso nel bosco quindi ottima d'estate, si divide in due parti, quella comune alla Valcava, molto trafficata e con curve strette...e quella dal bivio x Sogno, tranquilla e fresca...bellissima! Ultimo km molto duro, conservare qualche energia! Da fare! Bellissimi scorci nel verde
