📌 Characteristics of Passo Spino (Sebino version) It is a small wooded pass, not marked by structures or refuges. It is located on the road/mule track that connects the two main passes in the area: Croce di Marone Forcella di Sale It is a transit point for MTB riders and hikers who follow the “Malghe in rete” loop. The section between Forcella di Sale and Passo Spino is predominantly downhill, with some short uphill sections. 🥾 Why it is important Passo Spino is useful as a reference point if: you are doing the Croce di Marone → Forcella di Sale → Noase → Sale Marasino loop you are riding the panoramic mountain road that connects the two main passes of Sebino you are climbing or descending by MTB along the “Malghe in rete” route It is not a panoramic viewpoint like Croce di Pezzolo or the Almana ridge: it is more of a technical passage along the ridge. 🗺️ Quick summary Forcella di Sale = pass at 1150 m, start of the Sentiero Benedetti Passo Spino = immediately after, on the road that continues towards Noase Croce di Marone = connected to both via the same mountain road
