    A moderate route for those who love riding immersed in nature and away from traffic, combining physical effort with scenic pleasure. The constant ups and downs make for a varied, fun ride, with open views over the Vallagarina and the surrounding mountains. Descents are mostly flowing and never overly technical—ideal for gravel cyclists with a fair amount of experience. The tour follows quiet secondary tracks: a balanced, rewarding loop.
