Barbotto and Stelvio climbs
Have you ever thought about reaching the highest peak by bike?
Join the tour of the bike hotels “Lungomare” and “Funivia“: you will ride your bike and visit two regions – Emilia-Romagna and Lombardy to discover breathtaking and special places, without forgetting the typical food of the two regions!
Do you want to travel light? Remember that in the two partner and exclusive renter hotels you can rent the most suitable Pinarello for your needs: from road bikes to grevil, passing from electric bikes like the Andromeda and Nytro.
You can move from one hotel to another independently: by bus, train or with a car that we may help you to rent. Otherwise, we bring you comfortably with our minibus.
Plan your vacation. Depending on the days you have available, we organize your tour: you can visit from two to five hotels and places, according to your needs, also with different schedule, departure and arrival from those indicated.
The routes: Barbotto and Stelvio.
Barbotto is the toughest and most beautiful challenge of the Nove Colli route, the oldest and popular race in the world.
The total climb is 5.5 km long and has an average slope of 6.9%, with a difference in height of 372 meters. The last kilometer of the climb is the most feared, and it is known as “spauracchio” (scarecrow). The first 400 meters have slopes of 14% and 5 hairpin bends. To finish the race, you have a real “wall” to conquer with a slope of 10%. After a few more half road bends with uneven slopes, you finally conquer Barbotto!
Tackling the bends of Stelvio has always been the dream of every cyclist. It presents an altitude of about 2,758 meters. With the racing bike you can attempt the climb starting either from Prato allo Stelvio or starting from Bormio. The climb from Bormio is 21 km long and starts immediately with a challenging slope. After about 8 km you reach the heart of the hairpin bends, where the difference in altitude increases gradually. The last 4 km are the hardest and exhausting. Getting to the top, however, will be a unique emotion!
