You continue on a hard surface (except for the Tortoglio-Cassinelle section) from Miglieglia to the Maglio del Malcantone, which is used as a museum and is located in an idyllic area with several waterfalls.
You continue along the Magliasina river on the dirt road and ascend the Caroggio plain crossing fields. From Arosio you enter the woods passing by Alpe Agra, alternating between asphalt and dirt. After leaving Cademario, you continue through the forest along single trails and dirt roads. You reach Caslano, passing through its characteristic center and lakeside. Then proceed towards Agno partly along the lakeside where you can see some idyllic river mouths and Agno park. From here you climb up to Rivera, following the Vedeggio river on shaded dirt paths. From Rivera you can reach Monte Tamaro with its attractions; the mountain can also be climbed by mountain bike via a partially dirt road. To complete the stage in a refreshing way, we suggest a stop at Splash & Spa.
