The silence of the lake as a companion, the climb to the Madonna del Sasso that makes you hungry and from where you can admire a beautiful panorama... finally in Orta in front of San Giulio, with a steaming and fragrant plate of pasta and an excellent 🍺

The ordeal of my knee continues as it no longer allows me the old gaits of a ferocious cyclist.

Parking in Orta San Giulio (€2/h €10/day)

After Omegna the road climbs towards Brolo (the town of cats), then Nonio, Cesara, then descends towards Pella (if the timetable permits, you can have lunch at the Trattoria Antica Cartiera).
In Lagna, take the long lake (dirt road) as far as Lido …
