The very varied route crosses areas cultivated with apple orchards to reach an altitude of 1400 m and cross over into the green meadows of the South Tyrolean territory.
Challenging 42 km loop due to the distance covered and some steep sections that reach an 18% gradient.
The loop starts in Cagnò and ascends the eastern side of the valley towards the north. Mostly secondary and panoramic roads are taken over canyons and the Brenta Dolomites where traffic is almost non-existent. The climb to the Forcella di Brez is definitely challenging but the descent through the characteristic farms of Lauregno in the province of Bolzano and the views of the Maddalene Group compensate for every effort.
The Viridis hotel in Cagnò is also an artisanal ice cream shop.
The small hairpin bends lighten the psychological effort in facing the various climbs.
