Climb to Lessinia
An interesting route that takes you from Rovereto to discover Lessinia
<p>After an initial flat and bucolic stretch along the Adige River, you arrive at Ala where, just beyond the <a href="https://www.visitrovereto.it/scopri/chiese-e-luoghi-sacri/chiesa-di-san-pietro-in-bosco/">little church of San Pietro in Bosco</a>, begins the road leading to Sega di Ala. The climb is tough, especially due to the challenging gradient in some sections, but the satisfaction upon arrival is great!<br/>Along the road, a view of the <a href="https://www.visitrovereto.it/scopri/castelli/castello-di-avio/">Avio Castle</a> offers you the chance for a short break while at Malga Riondera, where the climb eases, you can stop to catch your breath and admire the panorama over Vallagarina. Then back in the saddle and off towards Passo Fittanze!<br/>Once at Peri, the return is made again along the cycle path, back to the starting point.<br/>The Lessinia plateau, with its unspoiled nature, will enter your heart... you will definitely return to explore it by following the many paths on foot, by mountain bike, or with snowshoes, or to visit the <a href="https://www.visitrovereto.it/scopri/luoghi-storici/luoghi-della-grande-guerra/">places linked to the memory of the Great War</a>.</p>
