This is a challenging ride for expert riders – both for the ascent and for the descent – requiring a high degree of endurance and great technical riding ability as well as mastery of your MTB. The descent of 1852 meters starts from the considerable height of 2500 meters, and is for this reason very aimed for by every biker. During the ascent you cross the Passo del Mortirolo, which is ridden by the world’s best cyclists during the Giro d’Italia. Great scenarios and luminous landscapes can be admired from Monte Varadega, while larch forests, meadows, mountain pastures and huts accompany us along paths and mule-tracks to the village of Grosio.
