Route description

This route, albeit short, allows you to discover the village of Colloro in the Val Grande National Park and reaches the oratory of Lut where you can enjoy a marvellous panoramic view over the valley.

Furthermore, if you look southward from Colloro the sun can be seen until late and the winter resembles spring.

You start from the central square of Premosello (218 m), cycle alongside the river on the right bank looking downstream and following the road you climb through the hairpin bends up to Colloro. From the village church (dedicated to Saint Gottard) follow the signs to Alpe Lut/Val Grande taking take a very steep narrow road in the initial stretch. Then, after reaching the first stream, the slope is ago easier until you reach the turn off for the Oratorio Madonna di Lut (Oratory of Our Lady of Lut) where you arrive on a short but very steep ramp. From Colloro to Alpe Lut the road surface is tarmac but rough.
