The Cheese Valley Bike Tour (E-Bike)

A beautiful bike ride from the Varenna ferry terminal to the famous Carozzi cheese factory, in the heart of the Valsassina valley. We start the ride along a panoramic climb to the small village of Vendrogno, along secondary roads that overlook the lake before descending into the valley. In the valley we ride on an alpine-style bike path that crosses the entire valley all the way to the cheese factory, our lunch and tasting destination. Many of the large cheese-producing businesses of Italy were born in this very valley before expanding nationally, and even worldwide! Still today the valley is like the headquarters for the local, precious cheese productions of all types, but especially gorgonzola and taleggio cheese. If you are a cheese lover, then this is the tour for you: on our tour you will not only experience a scenic bike ride over the eastern branch of Lake Como, but you will get a tour of the cheese factory and a special tasting lunch with local wines. After our lunch we have a van transfer back to where you're staying.
