Short but beautiful climb directly above Chiavenna with great views. Perfect for a short evening tour, as it gets very hot there at midday.... read more

Short but beautiful climb directly above Chiavenna with great views. Perfect for a short evening tour, as it gets very hot there at midday.

Kurzer, aber wunderschöner Anstieg direkt oberhalb von Chiavenna mit tollen Blicken. Perfekt für eine kurze Abendrunde, da es mittags dort sehr heiß wird.

This short powerful climb without extremes starts just outside Chiavenna from the main road SS37 towards Maloja.
Nine unnumbered hairpin bends take you up the open sunny terraced valley flank past houses and gardens (including grape orchards). Very nice route with panoramic views of the departure town below you.
Road ends at the highest point in the picturesque streetless village. A narrow tarmac road leads to a steep descent to a small spring just next to the church tower.
Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area!

Deze korte krachtige klim zonder extremen start even buiten Chiavenna vanaf de grote rijksweg SS37 richting Maloja.
Negen ongenummerde haarspeldbochten kronkelen je de open zonnige terrasvormige dal flank op langs huizen en tuinen (oa druiventeelt). Zeer mooie route met panoramisch zicht op de vertrekstad beneden onder jou.
Weg loopt ten einde op hoogste punt in het pittoresk stratenloos dorpje. Via een smal asfaltweggetje kan je nog even steil afdalen tot een bronnetje net naast de kerktoren.
Zeker meepikken als je daar in de buurt bent!
