Three-arch bridge on the disused Biella-Oropa tramway

Highlight • Bridge

Having remained in operation for about fifty years, the old tramway that connected Biella and Oropa has been supplanted by a bus service. It was inaugurated on 4 July 1911 and the last race took place on 29 March 1958. Today it is wonderful to ride it on a mountain bike and this passage is one of the most fascinating.

Monument to the Old Biella–Oropa Tramway

Highlight • Monument

This tram isn't the original but it must have been amazing to ride all the way. In Italy the rail transport system has been destroyed by this culture of car consumerism and fossil fuel pollution. Few regions have safeguarded these lines.
