En bici de Garbagna a Avolasca

Ready for a climb? Start your ride in Garbagna, a charming Piedmontese village famous for its tart cherries and medieval streets—definitely worth a stroll before you get rolling. The route to Avolasca packs plenty of scenic punch into its 8.2 km, with a serious amount of climbing (over 560 meters of ascent!), so expect a good workout.

You’ll mostly be on quiet country roads, winding through rolling hills and forests—a classic Alta Val Curone landscape. Much of the surface isn’t specified, but be prepared for some rugged, possibly unpaved stretches—perfect if you like a bit of adventure with your ride. There’s hardly any busy traffic, so you can soak up those views in peace.

Avolasca, your destination, is a tiny hilltop hamlet with panoramic views; on a clear day, you can see all the way across the valley. Celebrate reaching the top with a breath of fresh air and maybe a photo or two—you’ve earned it!
