September 9, 2023,MTB - Acceglio, Gran Tour dell'Oronaye con ascesa al Monte Soubeyran

Perhaps the Queen excursion of our beloved Valleys, demanding on both a physical and technical level, the joy of letting our fat wheels run on these paths is difficult to compare.
Not to mention the world-class landscapes...

August 27, 2024,Oronaye giro Top All Mountain in Alta Val Maira

Extraordinarily beautiful All Mountain type route, quite challenging.
Alpine environments in which the Oronaye and Roburent lakes are set.
A portage or push of the bike is necessary to overcome the Scaletta pass.
High physical and technical commitment but the environment repays all the effort necessary to earn it.

The Oronaye tour is a great classic of tours: this massif, with its surrounding valleys and peaks, is so beautiful that it has rightly earned such fame.
It is a track that goes up and down five passes: Cavalla, Munie, Gipiére, Roburent and Scaletta; and the merit of mountain biking is that it allows such a long and varied tour …

If you're not crazy, don't go there. There are numerous critical issues, especially for e-bikes. The climb is the only thing worth it. Then you get to the Cavalla Pass and you already have a problem. A rocky outcrop to overcome. Then from there you pedal quite well to the Roburent Lakes, which are beautiful. Then you climb to the …

What was THAT?? We shuttled ourselves up about 400 meters...and that was a good thing. Because this high alpine tour (actually 1736 meters) was tough. The rideable routes were only gravel roads...or single trails. Otherwise it was a case of pushing and carrying. A scenic delight that took us to over 2600 meters. The 1730 m descent was almost entirely …
