Riva del Garda - Laghel
Route in mountain bike from Riva del Garda to Laghel and Ceniga, length 27.5 km, distance climbed 285 mt.
Starting from Riva del Garda, via Pernone, continue till the Varone Waterfall where the is the start of an easy route which takes you through the old villages of Varignano and Vigne. The path rises slightly and then, on level ground again, among the wonderful olive groves which surround the valley of Arco, it joins the difficult uphill route which takes you up to the little church of Santa Maria di Laghel. From here, to the left, you proceed through a landscape full of thickets and randomly strewn boulders till you get to the downhill path, in places very rough, which comes out near the Roman bridge at Ceniga. After going through the village, you come to the main road which goes back to Arco through the plum orchards and the rustic villages of San Martino and Massone to complete a route which is one of the smoothest and most relaxing.
