Distance Level difference Departing from Running Time Country roads Difficulty
5,8 Km 110 m Passo Solarie 0:45 h 65 % Easy


This is the ideal roundtrip for those riding for the first times MTB, for the families with children, for those not trained at all. Good roads, short distance, short altitude difference, mild gradient but at the same time amazing landscapes and the sensation to ride on a "big" roundtrip. Departing and arriving to Passo Solarie shelter let you finish your ride playing soccer with your friends on the playground near the shelter or eating local dishes on the same shelter. Kolovrat roundtrip is the longer version of this tour.
