Hilly ride between Cervesina and Torrazza Coste

The ride

From Pancarana, this 55.8 km loop rolls out past the Torrente Staffora river, then into the Parco dei Ronchi nature reserve before the Castello di Branduzzo castle comes into view. With 506 m of climbing, it keeps things lively without ever getting too serious. The surface splits between paved and unpaved, so expect a mix under your wheels as the countryside slides by. Then it's back to Pancarana to close the loop.
