ENG: This is an alpine trail and not a bike park therefore you might cross paths with a few hikers. Enjoy your day by respecting the nature and those around you.
It can get crowded during peak season.

ENG: One of the most beautiful trails in the Alps, it is not too challenging but still requires a good physical condition. This ring trail will take you through the Val Veny, a beautiful valley lying by the foot of the italian side of Mont Blanc. You will start by crossing the Peuterey forest that leads to the Combal Lake. Once at the Elisabetta Hut take a break to get ready to finally conquer the Col de La Seigne, the border pass between Italy and France.
Enjoy both climb and descent but mostly enjoy the outstanding views
Ideal time of the year: from late june to late october (snow permitting).

ITA: Uno dei trail più belli delle Alpi, tecnicamente non difficile richiede comunque una buona preparazione fisica. Attraverserete il bosco del Peuterey, pedalerete lungo il Lago Combal ed avrete la possibilità di rinfrescarvi al Rifugio Elisabetta prima dell'ultimo strappo che porta alla sommità del Col de La Seigne, confine naturale tra Italia e Francia. Godetevi la salita, godetevi la discesa ma sopratutto godetevi il panorama! Periodo ideale da fine giugno ad ottobre in base all'innevamento.

Questo è un sentiero alpino, non è un bike park. Presta attenzioni agli escursionisti. Rispetta le persone che ti circondano, rispetta la natura e goditi il percorso. Il trail potrebbe essere molto affollato durante il periodo di altissima stagione estiva.
