854 - Rosspach

A funny route that goes down from Folgaria to the valley to experience all in one breath.

The track consists of a long descent from Folgaria to the valley to the village of Calliano connected to the cycle path that leads to Torbole in about 1 hour and 30 min. The track covers long stretches of the ancient medieval road system: indeed this route was formerly used to reach Beseno castle and it is also known as “the path from the mountain to the castle”. Along the way many points of interest such as the sixteenth-century church of Saint Valentino, the villages of Mezzomonte di Sopra and Mezzomonte di Sotto, the Rella Mill, the Rio Cavallo - Rosspach- stream and of course the Beseno castle. Destinations of this route are either the Beseno Castle located on the hill with the same name or Calliano where you can find the connection with the cycle path that leads on one side to Trento / Bolzano and on the other to Lake Garda.

The route is suggestive thanks to the many access points to the Rio Cavallo (Rosspack): in some of them it is even possible to go canyoning and to dive into the crystal clear pools or simply walk in the cold waters of the stream. As the Rosspack valley is deserted, a dense and varied vegetation prevails and makes the environment very evocative and wild. A real descent into the wild!
