Cammino di Oropa Fastpack
HIGHLIGHTS
The Cammino di Oropa della Serra over two trail days: from the plains to the sanctuary, a stage for runners building toward ultra distances.
The Cammino di Oropa della Serra is one of Piedmont's best-loved routes: starting from Santhià you cross the Ivrea glacial ridge (woods, villages and hills) to the Sanctuary of Oropa at the foot of Monte Mucrone.
The classic version spans four stages; we compress it into two running days for those training toward ultra distances: day one crosses the Serra to Sala Biellese, day two tackles the climb to Sanctuary of Graglia and the finish at Oropa, the most spectacular stage of the trail.
Overnight stay in Sala Biellese is not included: we'll point you to local options, but booking and costs are the participant's responsibility.
