Gravel Balcony Road

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The road overlooks the boundless panoramas which, in addition to being beautiful, offer the possibility of sighting numerous animals. I recommend stopping often and scouting with binoculars.

Repeated last year's tour, this year with Marco. Enchanting landscapes, wonderful panoramas. Easy tour, except for the climb to Cignana's window from the stable which forces you to walk the last stretch.

Wonderful ride with magnificent views. Simple route except for the climb to the window of Cignana, to be done on foot to get the best view of the tour.
Lake with worrying water level. To be repeated next year hoping to see snow on the peaks.

Very easy tour, but with great visual impact. Views of the Matterhorn on the way, and a splendid lake upon arrival.
There are some sections of trail that follow the dirt road which are pleasant as an alternative to the return trip.
Repeatable tour without risk of getting bored. I'm at 3...
