The Ciclabile Valchiavenna is a 42 km traffic-free and signposted cycle path connecting Lake Como to Switzerland, winding through the valleys of Chiavenna and Bregaglia.
Last part of it allows you to cycle the first 10 Italian km. of the busy Maloja pass traffic-free.
Starting in the centre of Chiavenna wonderfully laid out upstream along the Mera mountain river, which is crossed several times via bridges. There are already some short spirited climbing stretches.
After cycling past the Lago di Villa di Chiavenna and the village of San Barnaba, after a bridge over the latter part of the lake, you return to the main route for the Swiss continuation to the summit.
Absolute preference for this starting route and for the traffic on the remainder of the climb you will need some luck. Weekend there seems to be less freight but more tourist traffic. Early start (before 8am) and late finish (after 6pm) weekdays there is also less traffic.
De Ciclabile Valchiavenna is een 42 km. lang verkeersvrij en bewegwijzerd fietspad dat het Comomeer verbind met Zwitserland, slingerend door de valleien van Chiavenna en Bregaglia.
Laatste deel ervan stelt je in de mogelijkheid om de eerste 10 Italiaanse km. van de drukke Malojapas verkeersvrij te fietsen.
Vertrekkend in het centrum van Chiavenna wondermooi aangelegd stroomopwaarts langs de Mera bergrivier die via bruggetjes een paar keer wordt overgestoken. Er zijn reeds enkele korte pittige klimstroken.
Na voorbij fietsen van het Lago di Villa di Chiavenna en het dorp San Barnaba kom je, na een brug over het laatste deel van het stuwmeer, even verder aan de staatsgrens terug op de grote route voor het Zwitsers vervolg naar de top.
Absolute voorkeur voor deze startroute en voor de verkeersdrukte op het vervolg van de klim zal je wat geluk moeten hebben. Weekend lijkt er minder vracht- maar wel meer toeristisch verkeer in de zomermaanden. Vroege begin (voor 8u) en laat einde (na 18u) van de weekdagen is er ook minder verkeer.
