Alpe Camaggiore

Alpe Camaggiore (Bellano)

Alpe Camaggiore lies high above Bellano on the eastern shore of Lake Como. In addition to the ascent on asphalt roads and a fantastic panorama, the route offers a varied singletrail descent to Dervio.


Description

From the northern part of Bellano, take the mountain road up to Vendrogno, pass the mountain village of Sanico and, a little after the settlement of Buse, take the gravel road to the group of houses in Camaggiore. A short time later you are on the ridge below Monte Croce di Muggio. Here, after a break, you start the descent. Just below the ridge, turn left onto a single trail, which is later marked with small mountain bike signs. It is worth following these markings. The trail is pure and varied riding fun and leads down almost 1000 meters in altitude to Dervio. You return to Bellano on the road along Lake Como.

Very nice tour, pleasant ascent, very nice view. Unfortunately it was probably raining very heavily beforehand and the path was full of leaves, wood and stones in between, without Gpx data you would not have found it, path not recognizable in between.

In my opinion, the medium classification 3/6 is not appropriate here. The descent is very easy at first, almost flowing in places. However, this changes shortly afterwards and many difficult to very difficult passages follow. Some of these are extremely steep, slippery and narrow and there is always a risk of falling if you make a mistake or misstep. Wonderful and beautiful as a hike, but definitely only suitable for advanced, technically experienced and fearless riders on a bike.
