The sun also seems never to go out, letting its rays warm the green hills. 13 km of pure pleasure for the ascent make this route popular among road cyclists. From Vira to Alpe di Neggia the road first leads through beautiful villages, then through magnificent landscapes, always with Lake Maggiore at its feet. With altitude, the lush vegetation also changes. Shortly before arrival, leaving the woods behind, the gaze rests on the panorama offered by the alpine pasture. The return to Vira follows the same road as the ascent.
