Giro of Assietta is an epic adventure of 67 km that begins in Pragelato and is snowed through some of the most fascinating landscapes in the Alps. The route begins with an uphill that leads to Pian of the Alpe, immersing himself in the woods and alpine meadows, offering breathtaking panoramic views.
After Pian of the Alpe, the path continues along the historic Strada of Assietta, a long dorsal that regains spectacular views on the surrounding valleys. This trait is a true paradise for mountain bike lovers, with its combination of natural beauties and technical challenges.
The culminating point of the round is the Col Basset, from where you enjoy a 360-degree view that sweeps up the alpine tops and the underlying valleys. After a break to admire the panorama and take a few photos, you begin the descent to Sestriere.
The descent is adrenalinic and technical, with steep traits and narrow curves that require skill and concentration. Once you arrive in Sestriere, you continue downhill to Pragelato, completing a ring that combines adventure, nature and history.
This 67 km path is perfect for experienced cyclists who are looking for an exciting challenge, immersed in some of the most beautiful and lesser-known landscapes of the Alps.
