Valle Grana- departure from Pradleves

From the epic climb of Mauro Pantani, celebrated by a sculpture in black Ormea marble on the top of the hill, to the breakneck descent of Paolo Savoldelli at the 1999 Giro d'Italia, the access roads to Colle Fauniera delle Valli Grana, Stura and Maira, from the latter with the addition of Colle di Esischie, represent a coveted goal for cycling enthusiasts since they were paved in the early nineties. This is evidenced by the dedication of numerous hairpin bends to the greats of cycling, on the side of the Grana Valley, and the numerous revelations of the Chrono Test Point, timing stations active until a few years ago. A Follow transfer to Crissolo (or surroundings), free dinner and overnight stay.
