This is an ancient Roman road built mostly with large boulders/blocks, and not really classed as a trail as it is a paved path. It is very well established and worn smooth. It is wider than single track but not as wide as double track (but almost). At the bottom/end of the track there is a substantial set of steps which, although are rideable, can be difficult to ride when hikers are present, it may be better to walk down them Which as a riding track isn't ideal.
Although it is quite fun to ride in places, it is mostly a disappointing descent, especially if you have ridden up to get a good descent down.

There is a serious stair-case to descend the final 100-150 meters back into town. Can be ridden but it's a popular footpath for hikers and locals;...

      Such a disappointment. I wouldn't really call this a trail as such it is an old, slightly overgrown cobbled path and concret/tarmac at times which after all the climbing to get to it is such a let down. And there is a significant stair case at the end of the trail, ridable if no walkers, but not ideal trail conditions.

      This is not a trail, but a road... It should not be on this app in my opinion. The last 100 meters are just concrete stairs... Pointless.

      Mix of roman trail. Finishes with a lot of stairs
