Alpine huts
A blast from the past with a sweet background sound: cowbells.
This panoramic stage begins at the mountain dairy “Malga” San Colombano (also reachable from Fort Oga). The trail crosses the valley of the same name, where it is possible to stop at various points to admire the magnificent panorama over the Bormio basin. It then continues to the Malga di Cerdec and to the Alpe Zandilla, offering a not to be missed and unusual point of view of the Alta Valtellina.
Details
This trail takes you across three mountain pastures: San Colombano, Cerdecco and Zandilla, letting you see up close traditional Alpine activities like grazing and milking animals. The mountainside is covered in thick forest and the few clearings were used for raising cattle. The huts were also a convenient place for wayfarers to stop for food, rest and a little company.
IMPORTANT. Due to problems caused by recent storms, work on the route around Suena Campello has been delayed. There is a temporary deviation from Baita Cerdec to Massaniga, from where you can head up to Monte via the main road to reach Alpe Zandilla.
Details
A brand new cycling trail surrounded by breathtaking scenery. A mix of uphill and downhill sections through some spectacular landscapes with beautiful views over Bormio. From Malga San Colombano the trail climbs along some gravelly terrain, before a downhill section where you need to take a great deal of care. The descent continues along an uneven stretch of road until it reaches Santa Maria Maddalena. From there head uphill along a paved road towards Monte, from where you head along a forest road to Alpe Zandilla.
