Panoramic ascent through Valle di Ledro and the alpine meadows of Tremalzo with final adrenaline-filled descent towards Lake Ledro!
The first leg of the tour unfolds through the upper Valle di Ledro. The ascent, mostly on asphalt, is at its steepest between Tiarno di Sopra and Tremalzo. The meadows of Tremalzo are well known for their flowers and plants. At the ornithological centre in Caset birds are ringed and observed during the Autumn and Spring as they make their way to and from Africa. The descent winds down through the meadows around Malga Guil, at first gentle and gradual, then steep and quick from Ca' de Mez on. Final stretch along the turquoise banks of Lake Ledro.

Tremalzo is the ideal place for a nice half-way stop. Rifugio Garibaldi, Ristorante Da Richetto and Albergo Garda offer energetic meals for bikers. Why not end the day with a wonderful dive into Lake Ledro? In July the water temperature can reach up to 28°C!
On the way down, please be particularly mindful of hikers.
From Ca' de Mez on: exposed and technically challenging stretches due to terrain and steepness. Biking on this trail with an e-bike is not advisable.
