If you have an MTB, you have a trail!
10 easy itineraries to pedal without too much effort
Have a nice breakfast, put on a windproof jacket, shorts and helmet because today we will take you to 10 special places, to see the Trentino valleys from a privileged perspective. Castles, villages and panoramic points: to get there, you need a mountain bike, a bottle full of water and some training.
These are not difficult routes, because we know that after the winter break your calves, quadriceps and adductors need to get used to the rhythm of pedalling again. This is why we have chosen 10 routes for everyone, to ride on your MTB.
Primiero Green Way Loop
This 20-km loop crosses the villages of Imer, Mezzano, one of Italy’s most beautiful villages, Fiera di Primiero and Siror without ever, or almost never, losing sight of the Pale di San di Martino. In addition to nature, the route takes you to the discovery of palaces, wooden exhibits, frescoes and fountains.
The resonance firs
The route winds on dirt roads inside the Paneveggio - Pale di San Martino Nature Park. The wood of spruces that grow in these forests, also called resonance firs, is used for the construction of the soundboards of some musical instruments, such as violins, guitars and pianos.
Pozza di Fassa
This route is short and rather easy, suitable for those who are not very familiar with MTB excursions. It develops all around the town of Pozza di Fassa. The slope is slight and the trails alternate between undergrowth and more open spaces.
Dolomiti Shadow
A panoramic tour that takes you through the villages of the Banale area, from the Stenico Castle on the Dolomiti Brenta Bike trail. Between ups and downs you cross Stenico - see its beautiful castle from above - Dorsino and San Lorenzo in Banale. And more above, the Limarò gorge.
The villages of Tesino
The tour is easy, also suitable for families with children. We go to the discovery of the villages of the Tesino Valley on a loop tour, which passes through the villages of Castello Tesino, Cinte Tesino and Pieve Tesino, one of Italy’s most beautiful villages. Here you can visit the Casa De Gasperi Museum and the Arboretum.
From the Holy Lake to the Potzmauer Hut
This route, which starts from Lake Santo, crosses the dense woods of the Cembra Valley on comfortable forest roads and fun stretches. There are 2 mountain huts offering refreshments - at the start and at the arrival - and several panoramic points over the Adige Valley.
The Luserna-Roana Tour
As you pedal along the 30-km trail, you traverse forests, mountain pastures and alpine huts, from Luserna, listed among the Borghi Più Belli d'Italia [Most Beautiful Medieval Villages of Italy], to Roana. Along the way, with a little luck, you may encounter marmots, hares and roe deer. A break at Malga Millegrobbe is a panacea not only for the palate: do not miss its wellness centre overlooking the pastures.
The Ciclamino Tour
A pleasant and easy route that takes you along Lake Molveno and then into the centre of the beautiful town of Molveno. Reach the Ciclamino Chalet and pedal along the Ciclamino promenade to then descend and skirt again by one of Italy’s most beautiful lakes.
Rendena Tour
Starting from Pinzolo, this easy, round-trip tour continues along the Sarca river, through the villages of Bocenago and Massimeno and into the countryside of upper Val Rendena. Just over 10 km-long, this pleasant bike-ride is also suitable for families with children.
Upper Val di Non cycle path
The brand new cycle path loop in Upper Val di Non is a spectacular 25 km-long loop along asphalt surfaced and paved roads which connects the towns of Malgolo, Romeno, Salter, Cavareno, Sarnonico, Ronzone, Malosco and Fondo. The trail is marked and is mostly flat on the West side, with more climbs in the East.
