Mountain Historic Routes | Gardetta Plateau

Included in numerous cycle routes, the Gardetta Plateau is the junction point between the Maira, Grana and Stura di Demonte Valleys and can be reached from the Colle del Preit and the Vallone di Unerzio (Maira Valley), from the Colle di Valcavera and d’Esischie (Stura and Grana Valleys). The proposed route starts from Colle Valcalvera and follows the unpaved road for its entire length, up to the Gardetta Pass and Grange Selvest.
