Short, steep and fun wall that leads from Gurone to Bizzozzero in a few hundred metres.
The road surface is in very poor condition (the road is in fact abandoned).

Breve, ripido e divertente muro che in poche centinaia di metri porta da Gurone a Bizzozzero.
Il manto stradale è in pessime condizioni (la strada è di fatto abbandonata).

This is a beautiful wall that leads from the Olona valley (loc. Mulini di Gurone) and from the lamination dams on the river to bizzozero in a few hundred metres. It is a wall that is difficult in the first section with gradients close to 18%. At the first hairpin bend on the right it becomes a little more manageable but still with double-digit gradients until it enters Via Passo Buole, which then leads left onto Viale Belforte. For years, it has been one of the typical walls of routes such as the VVV and the Varese Flanders. The road surface is not in good condition and is often covered with debris. The ascent of Via Cervinia is bordered by 2 bars that can be closed due to danger or impassability of the road.

Bel muro che dalla valle Olona (loc. Mulini di Gurone) e dalle dighe di laminazione sul fiumiciattolo porta in poche centinaia di metri a bizzozero. È un muro che nel primo tratto è ostico con pendenze prossime al 18%. Al primo tornante sulla dx diventa un po' piu abbordabile ma sempre con pendenze in doppia cifra fino all'immissione sulla via Passo Buole che poi sfocia a sx sul viale Belforte. E' stata per anni uno dei muri tipici di randonee come la VVV e il Fiandre Varesino. Lo stato del manto stradale non è in buona condizioni e spesso è ricoperta di detriti. La salita di via Cervinia è delimitata da 2 sbarre che possono essere chiuse per pericolo o per impraticabili della stradina.
