The first route for mountain bikes that i upload on the site. The roadmap is a classic of my training and winds on the western slopes of Marzola. Before you cross the settlements of Povo and Borino, then climb up the Passo Cimirlo and then up to the refuge Maranza, all on sealed road. Then the fun starts for bikers, on trails and mule tracks leading to the refuge P. Prati - Bindesi returning at the end to Villazzano.

| Descrizione: |
From suburb of Trento, Villazzano (where I live) along the provincial road towards Povo turning to Gabbiolo at the sports ground. At Borino continue until Cimirlo pass, always on asphalt road. Hence still climb along a road in the middle of the forest to reach the refuge Maranza. Along the route there are splendid views over the city of Trento, mount Bondone and the whole chain of Brenta on background. From the refuge, leaving the road to go down a technical single track on steep descent that becomes then sliding mule track. At the gates of Vigolo Vattaro you move back toward the western slopes of Marzola for a wavy path. Then, in slight climb you reach the crossroads that through another path strongly steep and disconnected leads to the refuge P. Prati of Bindesi. A rapid descent on asphalt road get you back to the starting point. To view some other tracks on Marzola's slopes visit this page |
