Passo del Brallo

Passo del Brallo is a mountain pass in northern Italy that connects Valle Staffora with Valle Trebbia at an elevation of 951 meters. The road curves continuously through the landscape, offering views of both valleys below.

The pass served as a crucial trade route between Lombardy and Emilia-Romagna in medieval times. Merchants relied on it for centuries to move goods between these two regions.

The nearby village of Brallo di Pregola keeps mountain traditions alive through local gatherings where residents sell and celebrate regional food and crafts. These customs shape how the community lives and works in this high-altitude area.

The road features gentle slopes and is accessible to cyclists during most of the year except when heavy winter snow blocks the route. Allow adequate time and watch for weather changes at this elevation.

From the summit, hikers can reach Monte Lesima, Passo del Giova, and Passo del Penice via ridge paths that branch out in different directions. This makes the location a natural hub for those exploring the surrounding mountain routes.
