il trail si presenta con molti tratti esposti...rocce smosse e tratti molto tecnici e altri veloci....molto lungo e fisicamente impegnativo....in alcuni tratti da l impressione di fare ciclo allpinismo...il tratto finale e completamente rovinato...bisogna metter in conto 450/500 mt di discesa ripida da farsela a piedi perche nn e piu ciclabile

Traccia nella prima parte fattibile. Nella seconda invece si dovrebbe aggirare la risalita allargando le curve ma sarebbero lavorazioni da almeno...

È un sentiero da Cross Country fatta eccezione per l'ultimissima parte. Bello e panoramico. Vegetazione un po' invadente.

      Davvero bello e panoramico nella parte iniziale.
      Difficile da trovare, parte alla base del DH gatti.
      Parte finale davvero complicata, scavata e con pietre smosse.
      Piu complicato nel finale dell’hard rock

      Sarebbe auspicabile che vista l assenza di associazioni locali che possano vogliano mantenere la bellezza di questi sentieri ci si organizzasse almeno come gruppi di amici local per effettuare sporadiche pulizie. E non sperare nell 'intervento di anime buone che ripristino nella totalità da mare a monti dove tra l'altro entrano anche moto da cross

      Up and down with 3 o 4 uphill sections on loose rocks. Only real downhill in the final slope: tough one, steeper than HardRock line

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
