Voting round: 9
MTB: eMTB
Portage/spintage/tirage : 3% in total
Physical effort:7
Emotion/satisfaction: 8
Landscape:10
Notes: The descent is very flowy and long enough to lick the grips.
Tour departing from Gondo to allow the return to pass inside the war fort of the same name.
The first 6 km on the Sempione ss33, therefore busy, light indicators are recommended
