La Colma: the enduro side of the Vigezzo

The discovery of the trails of this locality continues, after having chased Martino Lani along the DH it is time to go and discover the Colma; line dedicated to enduro with a capital E.


I got to know this slope thanks to the descriptions of its first creator, that Nini Barbieri, a passionate enduro rider with whom I shared various challenges in the pioneering years of the discipline.

The backbone of this descent has remained the same, as well as the splendor of the views in the initial part. What has partly changed is the pace, because Luca, the trail builder who opens the video, worked on the advances, on the corner radii and in general tried to consolidate the structure in order to allow a greater number of passes.

The result is a really interesting ps, certainly very physical and dedicated to an audience that appreciates natural trails, where the roots are not an enemy but a challenge to improve their riding. Those who decide to tackle it relentlessly will arrive at the end with breathlessness and aching arms, but with that satisfaction that only intense descents can give. This is the real challenge and this is the beauty of descents like the Colma.

It is easy to find the flow in a drawn marble track, but the satisfaction is infinitely greater when the same feeling is experienced on traces drawn by nature.

From the reports on the DH and on the Colma it is understood that in Vigezzo they decided to set up the work focusing on the natural element, respecting the slopes and using local elements to create the trails. A return to the origins of MTB, when gangways, banks and artificial snakes did not yet exist. An experience to savor, a journey through time to rediscover from where everything took shape, immersing yourself in that mood made of adventure, discovery and challenge with yourself.
