Ponale

Super downhill track with gravel and again small, earthy hills and curves. Not only is downhill fun, but the ride uphill is unique. Always a great view of the Lago and pleasant slope percentages. In the high season you have to count up and down again and again with oncoming traffic (bikers and runners).

The old road as a climb to Lake Ledro offers many very nice views - including Lake Garda. Highly Recommended.

However, many pedestrians and cyclists are bustling here. I was lucky that the weather brought some rain in the last week of April and therefore relatively little was going on. Other bikers I spoke to have already had some "summer disasters".

You have to be careful in the tunnel sections.
When you enter a tunnel when the sun is shining, you see little at first. There, some incorrigible people came from above, not only without light (which is uncool on a mountain bike), but also much too quickly - whether that always has to be?

Despite everything, you have to see it.

It can be like a slalom ride when there are many walkers 🚶🏻 - but the wonderful views are priceless.

The old Ponale street is one of the linchpins on Lake Garda. Currently open again after a long renovation. It doesn't look as nice as before, but it's much safer, and in my opinion that's crucial. Have fun and ride safe!

Very nice downhill with a phenomenal view of Riva and Monte Brione ahead.

The Ponale - a classic on Lake Garda.

The Ponale is simply one of the most beautiful mountain bike sections of the world!

A grandiose ambience, a must for mountain bikers.

A uniquely beautiful route with a wonderful view.

Up to Lake Ledro. A must if you are cycling in Riva.

Best early in the morning ... The later - the fuller.

The lake is always worth it. :)

Warning, always turn right. Risk of accident due to stones and razors.

Exciting way, also suitable for beginners!

The ponale is the most beautiful of all.

Simple, pleasant descent with panoramic views over Lake Garda.

After the arduous ascent you have earned this downhill.

It's slowly going up.

The walkers make it here, too, but you can already feel sorry for the MTB traffic.

One of the most beautiful routes, but unfortunately too much going on.
Often a little too reckless by certain groups of people "with the help of a bike".

A great view over Lake Garda. In addition, it is a great descent by bike. Technology can be nicely trained there. In the middle of the climb there is a café with good espresso, which you can enjoy in peace.

In the morning, when it is still quiet, fantastic!

It's winding downhill ... just awesome! There is a lot to look for! An experience :-)))

A must for every mountain biker
