Description

The 'dorsale del triangolo lariano' is a mountain route in the pre-alps that separate the city of Como to the town of Bellagio. There is more than one version of this route and this one (dorsale per cresta) stays on on the ridges of the mountains and therefore tags all of the 8 peaks on the route, plus some smaller ones in between. Unlike the more frequented version, this one is mostly on singletrack, some of which can be particularly difficult and steep. As a hiking route it is usually completed over 2 days, starting with a ride on the funicular from Como to Brunate.

Description

This route can be done as an out and back starting from either end. Both trailheads are at within 100 feet of each other in elevation. This route is particularly special because it can be accessed from either side of the Sierras. The mammoth trailhead, funnily  enough, being accessed from the west side off Beasore road out of Bass Lake. And the other starting point being the shuttle parking lot of Devils Post Pile national monument outside of Mammoth. So within15 relatively easy mile you can cross from a car on one side of the Sierras to a car on the other side.
