From Pietraporzio we climb up to the village of Moriglione where we take the amazing dirt road that winds up for 13km and 1200m of difference in height to the Colle di Salsas Blancias, the authentic gateway to the plateau of Gardetta.
Tiredness is mitigated by the splendid view that appears before your eyes, with Rocca la Meja as the master. We will cross the Gardetta Plateau, an Italian geological heritage, in the direction of the homonymous Refuge, where it will be possible to regain energy. Another last effort will take us first to Passo della Gardetta and then to the next Passo di Rocca Brancia, where the hostilities of ascent end. The descent is about 7.5km for 1100m of difference in height all on a single bike trail with some more technical steps. We will run along Lake Oserot and descend the Vallone Sarvagno with a last part all with funny turns, until we reach the main road. After crossing the beautiful village of Pontebernardo, we will return to Pietraporzio along the military road.
