After such an enjoyable ride, the Trans-Altarezia route ends in suitably Italian style. The stage’s highlights: the trails and the impressive church of San Romerio high above the valley. It continues along old smugglers’ routes and through vineyards via Baruffini down to the destination in Tirano (I).
