Description

Scenic gravel tour from Lake Garda to the Trentino hinterland.

A scenic gravel tour that starts from Lake Garda and heads into the Trentino hinterland, crossing the Sarca Valley and the peaceful Comano Valley, before returning via Passo del Ballino.

An experience that brings together very different environments: the Lower Sarca Valley, the spectacular Limarò Gorge, and the rural landscapes of Bleggio and Lomaso, before heading back towards Lake Garda via Lake Tenno.

The route runs mainly on secondary roads and smooth gravel surfaces, ideal for a steady and rewarding ride, with open views of the Brenta Dolomites.
The track may be slightly adjusted depending on group conditions, weather or surface, while always maintaining the gravel spirit of the experience.

In short: a long gravel ride that starts by the lake and ventures inland — perfect for riders who enjoy smooth surfaces, changing scenery and discovering the territory at the right pace.
