fairly technical segment, be careful on the last part very hard to not jump off the bike and do it walking

We recommend only downhill, uphill is a massacre

A short free-ride trail, which connects the Commenda picnic area to the Gianna path below. It is short, but intense: a breathtaking climb, which takes us to the top of a hill, is followed by a descent on a narrow and quite technical track, which ends with two possible exits on the "Gianna", one of which is quite challenging and recommended only to those who use a full-suspension bike with good travel and a telescopic seat post. If you have a "front", I strongly advise against it (choose the easiest exit, which is the second one on the left), unless you are an Olympic handler :-)
