Directions

• Start

  Malè - Piazza Santa Maria Assunta
  
  Departure from the village of Malè.To start with a 1 km ride bringing you back to the centre of Malè. Next 10 km of almost all singletrack in the nearby vilages of Monclassico and Dimaro, this includes 14 km of uphill stretch to Rifugio Orso Bruno (2.200 m) going through the Adamello Brenta natural park. Single track and forest roads form the main part of this climb which includes 1.200 m of varying altitudes. Once at the top don’t be sistracted by the spectacular panorama of the Brenta Dolomites, because the downhill ride which follows is demanding. From Rifugio Orso Bruno a fast return to Folgarida to join the ‘short’ trail towards Costa Rotian once again on singletrack ‘rock and roll’ and the ‘PREDA DEL PE’ This is another stimulating moment for the competitors before arriving near Commezzadura and Daolasa and the bike park, internationally famous for having hosted some important events in the last few years. Here the trail retraces part of the World Cup XCO 2015. From here another difficult uphilll stretch to Bolentina and finally the fun-filled single track back diectly back to Malè. This speed-tested final part is considered a downhill trial.
