Cima di Medeglia

E-MTB
Bellinzonese

You have two options on how to ascend the Monte Ceneri pass: you can take the cantonal road up with its wide shoulder cycling zone, or you can choose the more technically challenging climb up the medieval cobbled mule track in use since the 14th century.

 

The summit offers a fantastic view over the Piano di Magadino, Lake Maggiore, Monte Tamaro, Monte Ceneri and finally Monte Bar. Enjoy the ridgeline ride until your descent back towards Bellinzona.
