サンタマリアデラヴェルサのおすすめMTBライド

Spectacular, do it downhill and all in one go... adrenaline-filled at times!!

Golferenzo is a village well worth the climb: small, well-kept, and surrounded by the hills of the Tidone Valley and the Alta Val Versa. Getting there by bike means pedaling through vineyards, along scenic roads, and with views that will make all your efforts worthwhile. If you enjoy cycling through nature and discovering authentic villages, make a note of this: it's a tour worth doing at least once.

On 14-11-2024 I passed through the stretch, Molino del Gobbo and Molino Rizzo, the path was cleared from the extraordinary fall of trees. I did not find objects, trees that obstructed the passage,

The Tidone trail is a hiking trail almost 70 kilometers long. At this point, between Pianello and Nibbiano, the course of the river is easily observable. The Tidone trail is also managed by an association that aims to help people discover the beauty of these valleys: https://sentierodeltidone.eu.

Comment dated August 2, 2024.... Climbing Mount Pioggia on an eMTB is now difficult if not impossible! While before it was tough, given the surface and the sudden difference in altitude, now after the heavy rains of the last few months, which have dug out the stretch there is no path to do it in the saddle. By cutting the hay, the farmer made it possible to circumvent the stretch in question and reach the summit of Monte Pioggia!

The stretch, between Molino del Gobbo and Molino Rizzo, was the subject of an extraordinary fall of trees (about ten), many of which were large, which forced the Sentiero del Tidone association to close the stretch for cleaning and cutting fallen plants and restoring the path. Some fallen trees even have a height span of a couple of meters. The photos highlight the first part of the closed section, approximately 800 m. but the affected stretch continues up to Molino Rizzo, with a total of 1.60 km!

A charming village, with many stone structures still standing.... After the long descent from Monte Pioggia, you arrive in Caminata, a village in the province of Piacenza, below the Molato dam, on the left bank of the Tidone!

Even by taking the right measures, with relationships and assistance, Monte Pioggia remains tough! In recent months the rains have created channels and finding the right path to take it home is really difficult! .🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️
