Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Varese Ligure Town Center
Highlight • Settlement
With its pretty cobbled main square, it offers a beautiful old town ambience as well as restaurants, bars and an ice cream parlor. An optimal place for a rest before the next pass.
From here it is primarily for the racing cyclist in three directions.
The very nice driveway up to the Passo di Centro Croci, which brings us in the direction of Tarotal. The Passo del Biscia whose fantastic descent from the pass towards Chiavari leads to the sea. Or you can follow the Vara Valley downhill and without having to cope with many meters you can reach La Spezia.

Passo di Cento Croci (1,055 m)
Highlight • Mountain Pass
Regular ascent very exposed to the sun but which from half onwards gives way to an Alpine panorama that has few equals in the Apennines.

Passo della Cappelletta
Highlight • Mountain Pass
The conclusion that it is often quite windy here is correct.
The pass is a real ascent from the east. Initially steep, then very pleasant to drive in a great landscape.
A recently asphalted ridge road comes from the northwest, which branches off just below the Passo di Cento Croci. This offers great views towards the Varatal.
Ideally, the pass is therefore driven from east to west. However, since the road is very good, the descent is not a problem.
