The Via dei Terrazzamenti in Valtellina

The Via dei Terrazzamenti in Valtellina

A trip among Vyneyards.

In this trip we explore the heart of Valtellina, following the Via dei Terrazzamenti, “the terraced path”.

The route winds along the mid and lower valley on the sunny side, the Rhaetian side. This area is characterized by the typical terraced vineyards, from which renowned wines such as Sassella and Inferno are produced. “Given its geographical, exposure, and cultural historical features, it is therefore an ideal itinerary to undertake in the autumn season.

“The route, with continuous ups and downs, starts from Berbenno and ends in Tirano, for a total of 70 km, but can of course be broken down into smaller sections. The three classic stages are Morbegno- Berbenno, Berbenno-Chiuro and Chiuro-Tirano. Our suggestion is to cover it by mountain bike, entirely or just one stage depending on your training. However, if you are trained, you can also walk it, perhaps over two days.

Along the route there are numerous benches and rest areas, explanatory signs and, in addition to the magnificent vineyards, you will pass through picturesque villages, historical buildings, ancient shrines and places of worship.

The return can take place along the same route as the outward journey, or by taking the convenient train that runs the entire valley and makes numerous stops in various towns.

This hike does not present any objective difficulties or dangers and is suitable for both adults and children.

Always carefully plan your trips, choosing the appropriate material and equipment and verifying the itinerary before embarking on it.
