Trail description
The tracciolino is a very interesting feature for mountain biking in Valtellina.
The start is from Verceia, near Colico, at the top of Lake Como. On asphalt first and dirt then go up for about 6 km. At that point you are faced with a flat route of almost 8 km. Halfway through the route, you pedal alongside the tracks of the small railway used for the works in the valley.
When you enter Val Codera, a a landslide has been blocking the road for some time and making the path impassable. You must thus descend towards the stream and then go up on the opposite side up to Codera.
You can take the dirt road that crosses the entire valley up to the Brasca refuge
To return , you can take the easy outward route or you can opt for the difficult and very technical descent towards S. Giorgio.
The complete report and some photos can be found on the blog page: il Tracciolino
