The route from Aprica up to Trivigno has a low average gradient that rarely exceeds 10 percent, making it pleasant to ride and giving the opportunity to observe the beauty of the surrounding landscape. The route, on asphalt road, first passes through Pian Gembro and continues to an altitude of 1560 meters, where you take a right fork. On a dirt road you reach Trivigno in the cross-country trail parking area, passing by Alpe Strencia and under Monte Giovello. For the return descend to Albergo Paradiso, where a dirt section leads back to Alpe Strencia and then to the paved road. Descending again to Pian Gembro, you follow a loop that, before returning to Aprica, allows a visit to the Nature Oasis and a well-deserved rest with a view of the Adamello Group.
