Discovering the Routo in the Valle Stura
Cycling
· Italy and France - Trekking & Biking in Piemonte
The package is a 4-day adventure for those wishing to ride the ancient trails of the transhumance between the Ubaye Valley and the Stura Valley of Demonte. The whole route is travelled on low difficulty cycling itineraries, thus offering the opportunity to experience this "journey" to cyclists of all levels. The departure from France requires the cyclist to tackle the climb towards the Colle della Maddalena, which however is never demanding and provides us with a reminder of the hardships of the journey to the high mountain pastures. Once you reach the hill, on the border with Italy, the descent towards the valley begins. It features some uphill stretches where we can see the most important sheep farming locations in the Stura Valley, as far as Borgo San Dalmazzo.
The stages in the programme are rather short, so as to allow anyone to tackle them easily and, if needed, they can be extended for more experienced cyclists.
