Bikeroute to Madonna di Campiglio

Highlight • Cycleway

The forest road that connects Dimaro and Madonna di Campiglio and crosses the Campo Carlo Magno pass is a splendid alternative to the state road. In some places the slopes are felt, but they are never impossible.

It is definitely worth deviating 50 meters from the main road, walking 5 meters of rocks equipped with a rope (very simple) and admiring this wonder of nature!

Beautiful valley with waterfalls and nice cabins. The valley leads right into the Adamello group and to the source of the Sarca. The Italians love the valley.
