High altitude trail that requires maximum performance, but is well worth the effort because of the breathtaking views and unique variety of particularly interesting natural environments.

Wide-ranging trail straddling the upper Roya, Tanaro, Arroscia and Argentina valleys. For well-trained bikers, it is a real test of your determination but takes you to the top of Mt. Saccarello, the queen of the Ligurian Alps.

Pedaling over natural terrain, with challenging elevation gains, you will go through vast forests and past majestic rock faces on a discovery of two Brigasca alpine villages: La Brigue and Triora.

This route puts your technical skills to the test. From the shady gorges of the Roya River you rapidly climb up to the sunny crest between Val Roya and Nervia and then make the steep descent to the fortified villages in the valley below.

Pedaling high above the sea, with gentle ups and downs and then the challenging climb up Mt. Grammondo (1300 m.), you then make the descent to Grimaldi and the Balzi Rossi, where there is a breathtaking view.
