    Tips

    The Malnate caves are located in the heart of the Lanza valley park.
    They are very ancient sandstone quarries: in fact they date back to 25 million years ago, when they originated on the seabed.
    In the past they were used for the extraction of sandstone blocks, today they are recognized as natural and cultural heritage.

      Immersed in nature, some sections with asphalt others dirt but for MTB, I did it on foot with the gravel (about 500mt), but it's worth it.
