B.02 TOUR Corteno
A beautiful, ultra-panoramic tour, even for beginners. Go up the paved road leading to Pian di Gembro, bear right just past the picnic area, along a short and rather steep stretch of dirt road. Continue right on the paved road. After a short downhill stretch, turn left at the first junction. The ascent is challenging, with an initial stretch of 300 metres or so, with a gradient of around 20%, followed by less challenging slopes.
Along the dirt road from Pian di Gembro to Doverio, the itinerary is rich in breath-taking views and panoramas. Continue to the hamlet of Ronco, go through the centre of Corteno Golgi and return to Aprica along the old via Valeriana. For less fit excursionists, an e-bike is recommended for this path, but be aware of battery consumption levels as excessive assistance levels may leave you low on power. The itinerary can also be completed in the opposite direction.
