Strada Alta - Trail Running

The route begins at the San Remo Sports Center in San Bernardino where you take the forest road that, passing through the Bosco di San Remo, leads to the shores of Lake Isola. After about 3 km from the beginning of the track you reach the intersection with the road that leads the athletes to the Passit Pass. The path climbs regularly within the forest characterized by the presence of fir and larch trees. From the Passit Pass you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Mesolcina valley and the alpine lakes in the area. With a last effort you reach the highest point of the route and then begin the descent towards Confin Basso passing at the foot of the Motton (2154 m). For the most trained trail runners it is possible to climb again towards the Alp de Confin (2286 m) before descending towards the top station of the cable car. After a short climb begins the part of the track that turns out to be "moved" and characterized by the presence of many boulders that make the race exciting and technical. After about 16.5 km of effort you reach the top of the San Bernardino Pass before embarking on the descent to the village following the path that retraces the old Roman Road.
