The two routes intersect on the Val Fontana bridge, just before entering the largest winery in Valtellina, Nino Negri. Once you exit the Negri winery, you start climbing again, this time on easy dirt roads and passing through villages and apple orchards of Ponte Valtellina, up to the Ròn valley bridge (km 28). After two kilometers, you cross the village of Tresivio to enter the Inferno sub-wine area, with short but intense ups and downs in the Poggiridenti wine-producing area. The finish line is no longer far, but the last seven km still have some brief steep sections before reaching Montagna di Valtellina and then its Castel Grumello, a real spectacle just a stone's throw from Sondrio. Beyond the Castle, after the last short climb, you can enjoy the final walkway over the Dossi Salati, another area of fine Valtellina wines, and then the brief downhill to Sondrio which leads to the city's lively nightlife in Piazza Garibaldi.
