    The Lower Giudicarie cycle path covers a distance of about 20 kilometers. It starts from the delta of the Chiese river on the shores of Lake Idro, passes through Storo and crosses the villages of the Valley up to Bondo.

    The place of the “judgment”: not of your physical condition, but in a historical sense. This is the land of the seven Parishes, and therefore of the seven main churches. Along the route there are many places of artistic interest, from the parish church of Santa Maria in Condino to the church of Santa Giustina in Pieve di Bono. The cycle-hiking path is a great starting point to discover the signs left on the territory by the Great War, such as trenches, dugouts, and positions.

    Safety information

    Please note that the feasibility of routes in mountain environments is strictly linked to current conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained on this page may have changed. Before setting out on a route, make sure the path you will take is still accessible by contacting the refuge manager, alpine guides, natural park visitor centers, or the local tourist office information desks.

    Roadbook

    It starts from the shores of Lake Idro at Baitoni, at the border with the province of Brescia, and goes up mainly following the course of the Chiese river, reaching Cologna, a hamlet of Pieve di Bono. About 2 km from the start of the route, a side branch on the path connects Lake Idro with the town of Storo following the course of the Palvico river. Another cycle path connects Bondo to Lardaro, passing by the small but picturesque Lake Roncone. This is the land of the seven Parishes, and therefore of the seven main churches. Along the route, there are many places of artistic interest, from the parish church of Santa Maria in Condino—where you can stop at the “Bicigrill”—to the church of Santa Giustina in Pieve di Bono. The cycle-hiking path is a great starting point to discover the signs left on the territory by the Great War, such as trenches, dugouts, and positions.
