Colle Fauniera

Colle Fauniera is a well-known alpine pass, because there is the statue of Pantani. The Gran Fondo of Fausto Coppi passes here.

From Ponte Marmora to Colle d'Esischie

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

This climb is a real epic that will take you, at the cost of a long effort, through varied landscapes (village, valleys, pastures, forests and alpine peaks). The road is not always in good condition and the bitumen disappears on several passages of a hundred meters during the crossing of the forest, but these slightly gravel parts remain passable with a road bike, uphill in any case. At times the road seems to rear up, the slope steepens abruptly, and you will have to put in the watts to get through. It's sporty, it's wild, but god it's beautiful!
