The Larian Triangle is that part of the land, that peninsula, between the two branches of Lake Como, also known as Lario (from which it takes its name). The summits of the triangle are identified with Como, Bellagio and Lecco.
The proposed path allows you to explore for the most part the triangle by bike.
You pedal mostly on asphalted roads with demanding climbs and downhills: a ring of about 50 km suitable for trained cyclotourists.

PATH
It starts from Nesso, on the western side of the triangle. The road starts immediately uphill and reaches fast 1.135 m high. At the top you can admire a beautiful view of Sormano.
The path goes down to the village, along a steep descent and once it is over, it continues downhill with other very panoramic tours.
Then, after reaching the Gemù village, you will face a short climb (about 6 km) to the Sanctuary of Madonna del Ghisallo, cyclist protector, and the Cycling Museum.
From here a long descent of 10 km leads to Bellagio, north point of the Lariano Triangle.
Then go back to Nesso using the SS538.
