Passo del Sappli

In this track the proposed ascent is from Cornalba on road specially arranged for emtb. The slope is very high (20/25%), in mtb I suggest to follow the climb from Serina. Arrived at the Alben refuge (Emtb recharge point) you continue from very nice and not difficult flat traverse to the Sappli Pass.

From the pass there is the most technical part of the ride, the trail is becomes a technical S3/S4 descent and then descends later to S2. The tour continues on trails that are never too complex and very enjoyable to Serina and then to return to Cornalba

Uphill variants:
