Torbole - Dos Casina - Nago - Monte Corno
Route in mountain bike: Torbole - Dos Casina on Mount Baldo. Length: 24,7 km.
From Torbole’s central square it’s straight up taking the old Nago road. At the first hairpin go straight on for the little valley of Santa Lucia, which on a cobbled road passes the foot of the cliff dominated by the ruins of Penede castle. Still climbing you come to the first house of Nago on the right and turn right to meet the road for Mount Baldo which, still to the right, winding steeply leads up towards the rocky pinnacles that precede Malga Zures. Here, among the clear evidence of First World War military activity (tunnels and remains of barricades), the road is briefly level before beginning to climb again without a break. First it passes Malga Casina, and then on the right handed bend before Dos Remit take the unsurfaced forest road to the left that goes round the rise and then down towards the Brentegana road. After crossing the Val Grande, a path to the left drops steeply down towards Malga Rigotti with many turns and still further down towards Maso Cavril until it comes out on the main road by a house. Head for Riva to the left and halfway up the incline turn left again for "Mala". Go through it and then down briefly after the sport field, turning left along a country lane you come back to Nago village through the vineyards.
