Child-friendly circuit in an archaeologically significant area.

 

Signage: 947. Palafitte Bike - Tour

Start in the centre of Fiavé, head south past the Museo delle Palafitte (well worth a visit) until you reach the Torbiera near Fiavé, a peat bog where pile dwellings were built in prehistoric times.  The route continues southwards. At the highest point it almost reaches Passo del Ballino, the crossing towards Tenno. There the route turns and leads in a northerly direction on gravel paths, slightly downhill through the forest. You then switch back to tarmac and describe a wide loop around the village of Fiavé, through agricultural land. Passing the villages of Dasindo and Favrio, you end up back at the starting point having covered just under 15 kilometres.
