Elogio del passaggio a livello sulla Provinciale Buronzina
A cycling route starting in Rovasenda, Piedmont, Italy.
Overview
About this route
The level crossing in question is located roughly halfway along the Sp 63/316, known as 'Buronzina', which connects Buronzo to the Sp 317. The route travels the entire length, passing through rice fields and almost total tranquility. This tranquility actually characterizes the entire route, which mostly winds between one farmhouse and another. It is precisely the farmhouse signs that act as a compass for correct 'navigation' in this land on the border between rice paddies and patches of heath, at the foot of the Biella Alps.
The cycling is on flat terrain, half on asphalt and half on good gravel roads. A touch of adrenaline is provided by the ford over the Torrente Rovasenda which, although not difficult under normal conditions, is best crossed with the bike in hand: a foot bath is preferable to a fall.
