A day on two wheels
Your first destination is Val Concei: cycling through the trees in the morning is one of the best ways to start the day! If your group also includes young cyclists, plan a stop in the Gavardina fairy forest.
Once back in Pieve, you can continue along the cycle path and take the small road along the lake to Pur. In summer, a refreshing dip here is a must!
At the end of the day, to return to Pieve, you can either retrace the route in the opposite direction or take a bus to Molina and load your bike too. (Be quick, there are only a few places on board!)
Step by step
If you prefer to walk, take the bus to Tiarno di Sotto and follow the signs to the Gorg d'Abiss: there, you will walk along the Massangla stream until you reach a spectacular waterfall hidden in the greenery (approx. 1 hour, easy trail).
Back in the village, you can take the bus and reach Bezzecca (from Tiarno about 20 minutes, from Molina 10 minutes): here you climb up to Colle Santo Stefano. This strategic point was at the centre of Garibaldi's battles (yes, this was precisely the place where Garibaldi responded with the famous 'I obey') and it later became an outpost of the Italian army during the First World War; along the way you can visit trenches, tunnels and emplacements.
This outing is also suitable for children, who will feel as if they are losing themselves in a fantastic labyrinth waiting to be explored. And if you still have some time left, take them to visit the house of the Giant Gilli (in the town hall, right in the village square): here they can hear his story and measure themselves - literally! - against his enormous silhouette.
From Bezzecca, it is only a 20-minute walk to Pieve di Ledro. Now is the time to relax, with a stroll on the beach and a tasty ice cream.
