Monte Casale Trail-Tour

<p>Long circular tour with everything mountain bikers could possibly wish for, along the panoramic ridge of Monte Casale and through the quiet of Val Lomasona.</p>

<p><strong>Signage: 952. Monte Casale Trail-Tour</strong></p> <p>Starting at Ponte Arche, pass through the villages of Godenzo and Comano. There is a very long climb towards Monte Casale. Most of it is along a gravelled road through the forest. The last part crosses alpine meadows and leads to the top with its iron summit cross. The view is phenomenal: you can see right out to Lake Garda, right down to Lago di Cavedine and the bizarre landscape of the Marocche, and on the other side into the lofty mountains of the Brenta Group. You now have a long, rapid descent ahead of you – partly on forest tracks, partly on trails – before tackling another short climb around Sella di Calino (don’t miss out on a detour to the Rifugio di San Pietro). Ride through the magnificent scenery of Val Lomasona and then, at the very end, take a short trail right back to the starting point in Ponte Arche.</p> <p> </p>
