This trail signed an era. This iconic track has a history carved in every local rider’s mind. It brought Olympic Gold medal Paola pezzo to the win on a Cross Country bike back in 1997 and is still one of the most technical trails in Finale to the day.
Being an old hiking path, it is rocky, steep, tight and technical. The focus can never get low on this.

      Molto tecnico e trialistico, soddisfatto di essere sceso ma non entusiasmante come la maggior parte dei trail in zona.

      Premesso che il fondo dei trail di questa zona è molto particolare, da scorrevole a roccioso da un momento all'altro, in questo caso la difficoltà maggiore è nella parte centrale, dove ci sono passaggi piuttosto angusti su roccia dove si rischia anche di dare colpi con pedivelle o con il deragliatore. Fatto da freschi forse lo si apprezza maggiormente, io l'ho fatto come ultimo trail di giornata in un giro pedalato da 40 km e sinceramente non mi sono divertito un granchè. Resta comunque uno dei trail storici di Finale, quindi almeno una volta nella vita va fatto.

      Not easy to find but ok. Nice trail but hard. Middle section requires you to be very brave or the trial Master. Super steep and scary.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
