Mountain Bike Tour on Monte Baldo

 

After the weather change last weekend with partly freezing temperatures and snowfall in the higher altitudes, our destination fell again on an area towards the south.
So Sunday morning it was "into the car and off to Lake Garda", with the destination in Malcesine! Unfortunately, the northern shore road at Lake Garda was closed, so there was a slight change of programme. From Mori (TN) via Brentonico to Rifugio Graziani, from there up the stony serpentine path to M.te Altissimo (2,079m) - what a fantastic view! If only it wasn't for the icy north wind ... what the hell! A short stop for a few photos, and on we went down the 601 trail to Nago. This freeride trail, the highlight of the tour so to speak, was made for our full-suspension troop! Of course, the climb was over far too quickly. Once we reached the bottom, everyone cycled comfortably to Mori, where the day's tour ended - how could it be otherwise - at the ice cream parlour!

The next tour is already planned: if you want to come along, please contact us! Just drop by the bar Look-In (next to Sanvit) on Thursday evenings, you can always meet us there.
