Safety information

Rules DPB:  http://www.dolomitipaganellabike.com/trentino/en/about-us/rules 

1 Ride Open Trails - respect trail and road closures — ask a land manager for clarification if you are uncertain about the status of a trail. Do not trespass on private land. Obtain permits or other authorization as required. Be aware that bicycles are not permitted in areas protected as state or federal Wilderness

2 Leave No Trace - Be sensitive to the dirt beneath you. Wet and muddy trails are more vulnerable to damage than dry ones. When the trail is soft, consider other riding options. This also means staying on existing trails and not creating new ones. Don't cut switchbacks. Be sure to pack out at least as much as you pack in.

3 Control Your Bicycle - Inattention for even a moment could put yourself and others at risk. Obey all bicycle speed regulations and recommendations, and ride within your limits.

4 Yield Appropriately - Do your utmost to let your fellow trail users know you're coming — a friendly greeting or bell ring are good methods. Try to anticipate other trail users as you ride around corners. Bicyclists should yield to other non-motorized trail users, unless the trail is clearly signed for bike-only travel. Bicyclists traveling downhill should yield to ones headed uphill, unless the trail is clearly signed for one-way or downhill-only traffic. In general, strive to make each pass a safe and courteous one.

5 Never Scare Animals - Animals are easily startled by an unannounced approach, a sudden movement or a loud noise. Give animals enough room and time to adjust to you. When passing horses, use special care and follow directions from the horseback riders (ask if uncertain). Running cattle and disturbing wildlife are serious offenses.

6 Plan Ahead - Know your equipment, your ability and the area in which you are riding and prepare accordingly. Strive to be self-sufficient: keep your equipment in good repair and carry necessary supplies for changes in weather or other conditions. Always wear a helmet and appropriate safety gear.

 

Please note that the practicability of the itineraries in a mountain environment is strictly linked to the contingent conditions and is therefore influenced by natural phenomena, environmental changes and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this page may have changed. Before leaving for a tour, make sure the path you will approach is still accessible by contacting the owner of the mountain hut, the alpine guides or the visitor centres of the nature parks, the info offices of the local tourist board.

Destination

San Lorenzo in Banale

Turn-by-turn directions

The route starts from the car park of the sport centre of San Lorenzo in Banale near the roundabout. Follow the slightly ascending tarmaced road to San Lorenzo. You will arrive at a crossing [3]; after 700 m keep right on the main road. Follow the hairpin bend [4] of this road still climbing in the direction of Molveno. Just before the tunnels, turn right following the old road (5) to admire a stunning landscape on the gorges of Deggia and Limarò. At the next intersection (6), after about 3.7 kilometers, turn right towards Moline and after 100 meters turn left heading towards Ranzo (7). You will arrive at the locality “Dos de la Cros” (8) through a dirt road that goes up and down for 2 kilometers. Then turn right and proceed on a singletrail (9); here descent lovers will have a lot of fun because the first section of the trail is quite steep, but then it gets flatter. After 1.5 kilometers you will enter another road leading to an interception; there turn left and cycle towards the little church (10). Pass it and keep on riding on a steep descent that arrives at Moline di Deggia (12), then cross the bridge that traverses the gorge and climb up towards San Lorenzo. When you find a little chapel with a cross (13), after about 12 kilometers, carry on straight ahead until you reach the point of departure.
