MTB descent from Prelà Castello to Molini di Prelà, all on a well-maintained mule track but with frequent curves. Excellent for MTB, very fun, never too steep. Some difficult passages.

ancient castle of the Doria, placed to guard the road of fortification towards the Via del Sale that passed from Prelà Castello. Destroyed by the Spanish and never rebuilt. It was paired with the Maro castle of which only a few stones remain. It was recently purchased by a foreigner who began the restoration with the intent of rebuilding it as it was. The works, however, have been stopped for a few years. Currently the castle has at least been cleaned and made safe.

The castle is built on masonry structures from various periods between the 12th and 14th centuries, which bear the signs of destruction by the Spanish in 1611. An ancient stronghold and the scene of fierce battles, it constitutes, at least in its original layout, an excellent example of medieval military architecture from the 12th century. The construction of the castle probably dates back to the first half of the 10th century.

This trait Brevisismo has recently been redone as it once was, that is, with stones positioned cut and stuck together, without concrete. The result is one of the few occasions to see how the mule tracks used to be, when they were still well maintained, without weeds and years of neglect. In addition, from here you can take excellent photos of the town, the castle and towards Vasia PS: you can go down on foot, gravel or MTB
