Ich kenne die Wege und bei geeigneter Kondition ist eine Wanderung dieser Länge sicher vergnüglich. Die Streckenabschnitte sind gut gewählt und abseits der ausgetrennen Pfade. Schöne Ausblicke auf Vasia, Moltedo und Montegrazie. Absolut empfehlenswert. Da kann ich nur zustimmen.

I really enjoyed this tour today. It is indeed a long tour, so right now, in mid-winter, it was only just possible during daylight. As for trail difficulty, I would rate it S2/medium. The main climb is all on roads, but the trail along the ridge has both easy as well as more challenging sections.

Herrlich einsame Bergsträßchen - zumindest im Herbst - , dazu jede Menge schöner Ausblicke, pittoresker Kirchen & Kapellen ... Aber: diese Tour ist absolut NICHTS für Anfänger, denn zumindest die Strecke über den Passo delle Ville ist von äußerst zweifelhafter Qualität: schmal, uneben, Schlaglöcher, Schotter/Split, keine Sicherung zum Hang(abwärts)... Und auch mit vollem E-Bike-Akku ist die angegebene Fahrzeit wohl kaum zu schaffen. Eine Einkehrmöglichkeit haben wir nachmittags nicht gefunden - daher ein Stern Abzug ... ;-)
