Please stay on the right and give way to
people climbing!
//BEHAVIOUR
The Organizing Committee counts on many
volunteers (race pack pick-up, crossroads
operators,
refreshment
operators,
mechanical services etc.). These people are
very important for your safety and for the
success of the race, therefore we ask you to
show respect and kindness towards them.

//TO DISCOVER
BORMIO…
…an alpine town nestled in the Stelvio National Park
26
//LOCAL FOOD
//EN
The Lombardy region has its own distinctive
cuisine to that of the rest of Italy, with plenty
of regional specialties that can be sampled
in Bormio.
Pizzoccheri
A type of short tagliatelle, made from
buckwheat flour and wheat flour.
Traditionally cooked with Swiss Chard
or Savoy cabbage and cubed potatoes.
Valtellina Casera cheese and ground Grana
Padano or Parmigiano Reggiano are then
layered on top and the dish is dressed with
garlic and sage, and lightly fried in butter.
Sciatt
//LOCAL ATTRACTIONS
Bormio is a remote town nestled in the
Stelvio National Park and close to the Swiss
border. During the winter months it is a world
famous 3000m ski and winter sports resort
and a regular venue for the skiing World
Cup; come the summer and it’s a Mecca for
cyclists thanks to its proximity to the epic
Mortirolo and Stelvio climbs.
The town itself has been a spa town since
Roman times and its fine 17th-Century
centre continues to echo with history
and atmosphere. Wandering through the
streets you can discover Kuèrc Square
with its Tower of the Hours, the Church of
Santi Gervasio e Protasio, ancient wooden
houses with intricate carvings, and more.
It’s history can be discovered at the
Civic Museum of Palazzo de Simoni,
nell’altrettanto historical and central Via
Roma, and you can literally soak it up in the
thermal waters of Bagni Vecchi, reached
following the road that leads to the Stelvio,
or in the Baths of Bormio themselves.
The mountains also offer the opportunity
to get out there with every mountain sport
you care to think of – from climbing to
paragliding, trekking to mountain biking,
and beyond.
One of the typical dishes of the region,
Sciatt means ‘toad’ in the local dialect;
it’s so-named because of its ugliness. The
food itself is a piece of Bitto cheese – or
Fontina – which is dipped in a light batter
of buckwheat flour, grappa, and a local red
beer, and deep fried. This ensures it’s crusty
on the outside but gooey on the inside.
Manfrigole
This dish is a filled and rolled crepe made
from buckwheat flour, eggs, and milk. The
filling is made from bread soaked in milk,
with Casera or Fontina cheese, and then
coarsely chopped. This mixture is then
combined with cream and seasoned, added
to the crepes, and then rolled. The rolls
are then cut into slices an inch or so thick,
topped with a cube of cheese, and baked
for about 10 minutes until the cheese melts.
Bresaola della Valtellina
Bresaola or brisaola is air-dried, salted beef
that has been aged for three months until
it becomes hard and turns a dark, almost
purple, red. It’s lean and tender, with a sweet,
musty smell and is usually thinly sliced
and served on its own as an antipasto, or
sometimes drizzled with olive oil and lemon
juice, or balsamic vinegar, served with rocket
and freshly shaved Parmesan cheese.
