The track basically integrates 2 sections that can be considered separately. From Ponte Giurino to Berbenno there is good asphalt and a fountain in front of the church of Sant'Antonio, a destination for many cyclists because it allows several choices, including descending from Selino, continuing to Val Brembilla or ascending and continuing to Blello and Val Taleggio. This second part has little or no traffic. More pedestrians than cars. Here the asphalt is not very good, often patched. Not ... read more

Passerby climb, one of the great classics of the Imagna Valley. The traditional climb ends in the square of Berbenno in front of the church of Sant'Antonio Abate. As I said, climb for passistoni where you can also push harder ratios if you are fit and want to do your PR. Also nice is the Ceresola variant (harder than this one) that you take shortly after the start of the climb by turning right at the fork.

Salita per passistoni, uno dei grandi classici della Val Imagna. La salita tradizionale termina nella piazza di Berbenno davanti la chiesa di Sant’Antonio Abate. Come dicevo, salita per passistoni dove si possono anche spingere rapporti più duri se si è in forma e si vuol fare il proprio PR. Carina anche la variante di Ceresola (più dura rispetto a questa) che si prende poco dopo l’inizio salita svoltando a destra al bivio.

First part harder and perhaps less beautiful in terms of scenery. Then it is at altitude and beautiful views

Prima parte più dura e forse meno bella a livello paesaggistico. Poi si sta in quota e begli scorci

This is a nice route that allows you to complete a loop around the entire Val Brembilla mainly without traffic and on generally good roads.

Bel percorso che permette di compiere un anello in tutta la Val Brembilla soprattutto senza traffico e su strade complessivamente buone.

Cute section that can be pedalled and then continued straight on towards Passo Culmine San Pietro. Road in good condition, no traffic and very sheltered by the clearing even in the heat

Tratto carino pedalabile utile per poi proseguire puntando dritto verso Passo Culmine San Pietro. Strada in buone condizioni, traffico nullo e molto riparati dalla radura anche col caldo

You can then continue through the beautiful Taleggio valley or turn for Vedeseta and climb up to Culmine and then descend into Valsassina

La traccia sostanzialmente integra 2 tratti che possono essere considerati separatamente. Da ponte Giurino a Berbenno asfalto buono e fontana davanti alla chiesa di Sant'Antonio meta di molti ciclisti perché permette di effettuare diverse scelte tra cui scendere da Selino, proseguire per la Val Brembilla oppure appunto salire e proseguire per Blello e la val Taleggio. Questa seconda parte veramente poco o per nulla trafficata. Più pedoni che auto. Qui l'asfalto non è molto buono, spesso rappezzato. Non impossibile ma abbastanza ruvido. Bei panorami. Si può proseguire poi per la bellissima val Taleggio oppure svoltare per Vedeseta e salire al Culmine per scendere poi in Valsassina

An ascent that can be pedalled without any particular difficulty, on good asphalt overall and with little traffic. Wide views between Valle Imagna and Val Taleggio. Recommended in spring and autumn. Possibility of water along the route (fountains present at Berbenno and Gerosa). To be completed with a loop route straddling the two valleys.

Salita pedalabile senza particolari affanni, su asfalto nel complesso buono e scarsa presenza di traffico. Ampi panorami tra Valle Imagna eVal Taleggio. Consigliata in primavera ed autunno. Possibilità di acqua lungo il percorso (a Berbenno e Gerosa fontane presenti). Da compiere con percorso ad anello a cavallo delle due valli.
