Cycling in Riva del Garda Electric Mountain Bikes – What Are They?Īlongside regular mountain bikes, bike shops have started offering electric mountain bikes to rent or buy over the last few years.Įlectric mountain bikes have an integrated electric motor, used to assist propulsion. The area is well suited to the needs of mountain bikers, with bike shuttle services, bike rental and repair shops, and many bike-friendly hotels. Mountain bikers can choose between 44 official trails, ranging from comfortable, wide forest roads perfect for beginners, to old military tracks and twisty single paths, for a total of over 1300 kilometres. The northern shore of the lake is surrounded by peaks touching 2000 meters, offering riders the thrill of seemingly endless descents on panoramic paths and shady forests, followed by a swim or gelato on the lake shore. The scenery is probably the main reason why Lake Garda is such a popular mountain bike destination. The northern Lake Garda region is one of the best places in the world for mountain biking – there are challenging trails like the super-steep Val del Diaol and famous Ex-Seicentouno (601) down Monte Altissimo, that we passed during our scenic GardaTrek hike in spring, but also lots of easier options if you’re a beginner mountain biker like us. Why is Northern Lake Garda Great for Mountain Bikers? Yet, we always wanted to try ‘proper’ mountain biking – riding up to scenic lookouts over the lake, then zipping down single tracks in the forest, jumping over rocks and tree roots. During our first visit back in 2015 in occasion of a Lake Garda adventure weekend, we rode along the Sarca cycle path, one of the best easy cycling option in the northern Lake Garda area, but we did so on a ‘regular’ bike. An activity that attracts thousands of visitors to the Lake Garda shores each year – mountain biking. Yet, even after so many visit, there was still an activity we hadn’t tried. There’s truly no other place in Italy where you can enjoy adventure all year round, and where you can enjoy a multitude of activities without travelling far – you can go climbing in Arco, hike GardaTrek, or enjoy sailing and windsurfing in Riva del Garda, all within less than half an hour drive from one another. The directions are N - W - N - W - N - N - E - E - S - E - E - N - N - W - N from the first area.After so many adventures hiking around Lake Garda, we decided it was time to try something different – Lake Garda by mountain bike! Here are two amazing trails we got to know in occasion of the EMTB (Electric Mountain Bike) festival in Torbole! Palumma: Accessed only by completing the right path through the forgotten path forest. You also get access to the Jacu oasis club membership, which reduces the cost of the desert clothing to 100 coins. Grascia: Go south from the oasis and you will find ancient bones of a snake. On v1.0.0 a clone also spawns just above the oasis Pitrazza: In the northern area, there is a square with three triangle shaped tiles on which you need to place the urns found nearby. You have to place 3 owl urns on the 3 circular points to spawn the tower. The lost temple is accessed via the meadows, through an opening in its southernmost area. You need the artifact from completing the Kodige brothers quest and the lantern to access this tower. Lapazza: Found in the lost temple, in the south-east part of the second room. You need to light up 3 bobo statues' braziers (in the southern part of the area near water) to spawn the platform that bridges the gap to the tower. You need to go around the area and kill the plant that goes underground to reveal an air draft that takes you to the tower.įauda: In the eastern area of Dinna mountains. You only need 4 for acquiring the weapon.Ĭurria: Found just above Dinna mountains, and accessed via the west entrance of the lake nearby. This one houses one of the runes for the wind staff, which are 6. You cannot activate this owl tower as of v1.0.0 as the 4 urns you need to place on the circular points do not exist. The fisherman in the docks area of Rodia town will give you a ticket for the ferry.īucalaci: Found in the northernmost region, in the east area of the Leon heights warp point.
