Lake Garda: The MTB trails of Pregasina
Bike scout Karen Eller likes the descents of the Pregasina trails on Lake Garda at least as much as a break at Café Panorama.


Tour Info 18.5 km, 450 m elevation gain, 2:00 h


Level of difficulty *** (max. 5 stars)

From Riva, it's a leisurely ride up the Ponale road. In the village of Pregasina, you can't miss the Café Panorama, where there are usually 100 bikers sitting on the sun terrace. Then continue to Malga Palaer, where the Sentiero 422 finally branches off: a relaxed path by Lake Garda standards, but one that can be exposed, steep and bumpy at times. Perfect for slowly approaching bigger challenges on Lake Garda.


Afterwards The Al Porto has moved! From the market square in Torbole to the road towards Arco (by the thermal baths). And I have the feeling that the pizza is even better now.

  Karen Eller, Scott Contessa: There are two things I'm particularly looking forward to on this tour: firstly, of course, the downhill trails, which I would classify as "medium" in terms of difficulty, and the Café Panorama in Pregasina. The sandwiches there are simply too delicious!Photo: Hersteller Karen Eller, Scott Contessa: There are two things I'm particularly looking forward to on this tour: firstly, of course, the downhill trails, which I would classify as "medium" in terms of difficulty, and the Café Panorama in Pregasina.
