Passo della Presolana
SS671Dorga to Colere
Every Bergamo rider knows this one: curves and long straights over the 1,297 m saddle between the Presolana massif and Monte Scanapa. Go early or midweek and the Prealps are all yours.
Passo della Presolana sits at 1,297 m on the SS671 della Val Seriana, between the Presolana massif and Monte Scanapà, linking Valle Seriana with Valle di Scalve. It is a well-known motorcycling and cycling route mixing curves with longer straighter stretches as it crosses the Bergamo Prealps. Traffic is heavy near Castione della Presolana, the road can be busy on summer weekends, and the Scalve side carries snow and ice in winter.
