The Best MTB Routes

Here are some of the best mountain biking routes I’ve found on the Greenway Valli Resilienti website:

  • Lake Loop: An easy and scenic route that hugs the shoreline, suitable for all levels, spanning 30 km.
  • Monte Stino Trail: A more challenging route offering spectacular views, covering 45 km with 1,200 m of elevation gain.

These trails are an invitation to explore pristine nature and enjoy unforgettable views.

My Personal Experience: Circumnavigating the Lake by E-Bike

I recently tackled a unique e-bike route, with bikes rented from Bike3Lands Shop in Idro, run by Davide. This circuit, which traces the shoreline, climbs toward Passo Maniva and descends to Ponte Caffaro, is an experience accessible to everyone, rich with stunning panoramas and fun. A two-wheeled adventure that combined sport, nature, and the pleasure of a mountain refuge lunch.
