By: Visit Brusson

Route category: E-bike

Length: 28000 m

Difficulty: Medium

Testa di Comagna

Access: the starting point of this itinerary is Brusson, reachable through the regional road n.45, after 16km from the exit of Verrès.

Route description: This circular route allows experts to ride various single track trails. For beginners it is advisable to follow the route as illustrated.

Starting from Brusson, in the direction of Ayas, turn left at the junction for the Col de Joux, and go up following the regional road n.33 along which you can stop to drink at the fountain of Napoleon where, according to a legend, It is said that the leader has quenched his thirst with his troops passing through the Alps.

Once you reach the Col de Joux, continue for a few kilometers to Sommarèse from where you can go down or, for the more experienced, near the last house, turn left following a single track that leads to Erésaz (1166 m).

For those who want to continue on single track, once in the center of the village turn left and continue to the Col d'Arlaz (1040 m). Once on the canal, turn left and skirt it.

For those who have followed the road, once in Emarèse, turn left and follow the farm road of Ru d'Arlaz that leads to Col d'Arlaz. Once on the hill, turn left and go along the canal passing under a beautiful waterfall, then arrive at Orbillaz, a hamlet of Challand-Saint-Anselme.

Finally, leaving the village, turn left and continue along the canal following the farm road that takes us back to Brusson.
