Alpe Foppa – Piano di Mora – Rivera (direct route)
The direct and more challenging Alpe Foppa – Rivera walk
Characterised by steep and technical sections, the direct trail Alpe Foppa – Rivera is ideal for sportspeople, especially in the reverse direction. On its upper part, going from Alpe Foppa to Piano di Mora, it largely follows the route of the old ski slopes, always seeking the most direct line. Once you reach the intermediate station of the cable car, there are basically two options left: going ahead with the hike or rather taking the cable car to Rivera for the rest of the route. In both cases, you can take a restorative break at the Snack Bar of the Adventure Park Monte Tamaro before continuing your way. For those who decide to proceed to Rivera, the way continuous following the gravel road from the intermediate station. After a few hairpin curves, on reaching the Monti di Spina, leave the forestry road and follow a rather steep path through the woods until the neighbourhood of Soresina. Continue along a stretch of gravel road until the Valley station of the cable car.
The route follows the official signposts along its entire length. For those looking for an easier path, we recommend this one.
Main stops: Alpe Foppa (Mountain station of the cable car) – Piano di Mora (intermediate station of the cable car) – Monti di Spina – Soresina – Rivera (Valley station of the cable car)
