FROM MAY TO OCTOBER

For people who love the mountains from the saddle of a mountain bike, an itinerary in Piemonte from Oasi Zegna through Valsessera and Valsesia to the foot of Monte Rosa.

Starting from Bielmonte, the route passes along the wild Valsessera and then follows the old Sanctuaries trail as far as Masino. The sanctuaries of San Giovanni, Oropa (UNESCO Heritage) and Graglia and the old La Trappa monastery are just some of the attractions along the panoramic Tracciolino road. The route continues across the Ivrea Morainic Amphitheater, skirts Lago di Viverone and ends at Castello di Masino, ancient seat of the Counts of Valperga.

The routes can be undertaken with or without a guide.
