The most classic among the bike routes in Val di Fiemme. A circular itinerary around the Latemar massif with a stop at the enchanting Lake Carezza.
A must, an icon, definitely one of the top 10 gravel routes in the Dolomites. Unmistakable landscapes follow one after another with every pedal stroke. The Dolomites of Latemar, Catinaccio, Sciliar, Corno Bianco, and the Pale di San Martino. The intense colors of Lake Carezza, a blue pearl embraced by the green of fir trees reflected in its calm waters.

Traffic on all routes is two-way; always pay attention to passing vehicles and the presence of people. The routes are not exclusively for bicycles. Following the Vaia storm (October 2018), forest roads are used by heavy vehicles for timber work and transport.

Starting from the center of Predazzo, warm up by cycling on the bike path towards Moena. From here, you ascend on the dirt road until you reach Passo Costalunga. The view of the imposing cliffs rewards the climb's elevation gain. From the pass, descend towards Lake Carezza, and once you have bypassed it, continue on an almost flat forest road to Bewallerhof. From here, a path also suitable for bicycles leads to Obereggen and subsequently to Passo Pampeago, the highest point of the entire route. From here begins a long descent, partly on asphalt and then on dirt, following the signs for MTB route 928. Upon reaching Stava, continue the descent on asphalt and then take another dirt road that leads to Panchià and Ziano di Fiemme. A final climb on the foothills of Mount Pizancae brings you back to the starting point. For those in a hurry at Ziano di Fiemme, we recommend reaching Predazzo directly via the SS48 state road.
It is recommended to download the gpx track of the route and follow it on your smartphone.
