    The Giro dell’Orizzonte ‒ lit. Horizon Tour ‒ follows the route of a century-old military trail trodden during World War I that connects Passo Bruffione to Passo di Val Marza. At a constant height of 2,000 metres, this trail offers a smooth cycle path suitable for regular bikes and eMTB with very few bumpy stretches, like the slope running down from Passo Brealone. It is a super trail, whose level of fun is only matched by the beauty of the surrounding scenery: the Adamello massif to the North, Tremalzo and Monte Baldo to the East, the lonely mountain range of Passo Croce Domini to the West, and the Idro lake to the South.

    Author’s recommendation

    Departure is possible from the village of Condino (car park on the main square near the church). This unparalleled super tour along which you never need to dismount requires good athletic preparation (for those with an eMTB, of course, there is less of an effort, but you will need a spare battery) and good riding technique. It also offers breathtaking views and maximum enjoyment in an area as of yet unexplored by bikers.

    • On trails and other narrow roadways, pay close attention to hikers and slow down or stop as seems appropriate under the circumstances.
    • Always were a helmet and never underestimate the difficulty of the trails.
    • Be careful when crossing wood bridges, as they can often be slippery.
    • Avoid skidding as this can damage both your tires and the road surface.

    Roadbook

    From the starting point in Ca’ Rossa, take the asphalt road to the right in the direction of Faserno. After an ascent of almost 1000 m on a scenic road with sharp bends, arrive at Faserno and continue on to Malga Vacil, still on an asphalt road. Above the mountain pasture, take the forest road that climbs up through the pastures and after about 500 metres turn left. Continue uphill until the ridges, where the small road turns into a military road that continues to the right and leads halfway up to the Val Marza pass. From here descend to the Cornelle pass and continue straight on the military road. After a wide curve to the left, which follows the course of the valley slightly uphill, but on a stony surface, join another military trail. Here turn right in the direction of Passo Brealone. The trail proceeds smoothly to the pass with fairly easy uphill and downhill stretches. The cobbled surface, however, could give less experienced bikers some difficulty. On reaching the Brealone pass, continue towards the Bruffione pass, still on a military path with exposed sections. This is the highest altitude of the route, at around 2200 m. From the Bruffione pass with the bivouac of the same name, take the downhill path to Malga Bondolo, with wide flowing sections interrupted by a few sharp bends in the lower part. After the bridge, turn right towards the Malga Valle Aperta mountain pasture and continue down the valley, overlooked by the characteristic peaks of this complex geological environment. When you reach the asphalt road, continue towards the village of Brione, a panoramic terrace overlooking the Val del Chiese, from where you descend on asphalt towards Condino. At the bottom of the descent in the main square of Condino, follow the main road in the direction of Storo to the industrial area, before which take the narrow asphalt road to the right. Keep to the right at the first fork and to the left at the second, proceed as far as the Fra’ Dolcino restaurant, where you take the road that runs alongside the state road. Here turn right and reach the starting point in just over a kilometre.

    Prima della discesa verso Storo in senso antiorario. Malga Vacil se aperta, ma meglio non fidarsi. Comunque giro molto bello, soprattutto parte centrale.
