Distance 35.5 km

Ascent460 m
Descent200 m
Highest point463 m
Lowest point195 m

Passing through Losone and by crossing the rivers Maggia and Melezza one reaches Tegna and Ponte Brolla.

From Ponte Brolla one continues on the cycling track that leads to Avegno: inaugurated in the spring of 2016, this newly built path allows cyclists to enjoy their ride safely separated from other traffic.

The route, mostly on bike paths, leads to Cavergno at the entrance of the Bavona Valley. Some parts of the route, between Losone and Tegna and between Gordevio and Aurigeno lead along dirt tracks.
