マルチェテッリのおすすめツーリングルート

Beautiful road. No need to carry the bike by hand anymore as a gap has been created in the landslide. The steeper sections are paved.

Not drinkable but very fresh, great for cooling off. A little further on you will find a drinking fountain.

Very fresh water with a truly clean taste.

The starting point is also a good place to park

Lago del Salto is a small but successive artificial lake near Rieti whose circumference is about 32 km of asphalted and mostly flat road. A wonderful route to do by bike, even with the family, taking into account both the low car traffic and the good condition of the road surface perfectly passable with MTB, GRAVEL, City Bike, Racing bike etc. and the beautiful naturalistic views of the lake and the mountains. Along the route there are several rest areas where you can rest and eat a sandwich, but there is also a bar with a beautiful view near the dam. Also along the route you will encounter the town of Fiumata, diametrically opposite the dam, and the town of Borgo San Pietro, halfway between Fiumata and the dam, this is the ideal starting point thanks to the large spaces available for parking cars, but above all for the numerous restaurants with a view of the lake, open all year round and offering excellent local dishes, ideal to enjoy especially after a nice ride like this. For those who want to make the undertaking more challenging there is the variant that passes through Varco Sabino and then through the town of Rigatti, the tour is extended by a total of 10 km, testing a truly challenging climb and descent. Definitely worth trying.

Mountain lake full of life and nestled in a fantastic plateau.

Small rest area with fountain surrounded by aromatic herbs. Excellent for refreshment before the climb to the Rascino plateau.

The passage over the dam is spectacular and the "jump" below is very impressive.
