View of Riva del Garda from the Ponale Trail

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Ponale path is one of the most spectacular in Europe, both by bike and on foot. In some spots, like this one, you can admire Riva del Garda from a unique perspective. Stop, turn around and observe the surroundings from this vantage point.

Ponale Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Ponale is a must for hikers and cyclists on Lake Garda. You hardly notice the difference in altitude, because the breathtaking scenery of Lake Garda and the surrounding mountains occupy the hiker too much. Don't forget the short branch up to the bunker! Unfortunately, everyone – hikers and cyclists alike – is on the trail at the same time, so I recommend running out of season or at a quieter time of day if possible.

The Ponale Gorge (Ponale Road)

Highlight • Cycleway

This panoramic road is perfect for cycling in a remarkable setting between the lakes of Ledro and Garda. Here, in fact, the slopes are never excessive, the views of Lake Garda are frequent and wonderful. Finally, you will often have a high rock wall at your side, which makes everything even more suggestive.

December 2, 2024,Vista sul Lago di Garda – Porto di Riva del Garda giro ad anello con partenza da Loppio

Start of the route we started 2 km before a parking lot. The route is beautiful but very challenging. But it is worth doing to see the wonderful view. I recommend mountain bike tires

A classic, for everyone who has the MTB to some extent under control, can do it. But nothing for beginners

Did the tour with a Cube Stereo 140 tm e-bike. Bosch Power Tube 750. Didn't save that much, mostly rode on e-mtb. At the steep places then sometimes turbo. The route from Lake Ledro is marked with 736. Partly also on the route that comes from the Tremalzo Pass.
