• The roads, trails, and routes indicated are often used in the opposite direction as well, so always pay attention to pedestrians, bikes, and cars approaching
• On trails and narrow points always be cautious of hikers, use common sense, slow down, and stop if necessary
• Always wear a helmet and do not underestimate the difficulty level of the route
• Take away any trash you produce
• Respect speed limits and ride so that you always maintain control of your bicycle

As you can imagine, the rideability of routes in a mountain environment is closely linked to current conditions and therefore depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this sheet could have changed. Before leaving, get information on the condition of the route by contacting the refuge managers on your route, alpine guides, natural park visitor centers, and tourist offices.

From the locality Centrale, ascend through the village of Bedollo up to the hamlet of Svaldi, where the provincial road ends. It is also possible to reach the top of the village by detouring through the historic center of Bedollo following the cobblestone road. Continue left, first on asphalt and then on dirt road, up to Capitel del Frànzele. After about 200 meters, be very careful as you will travel a path with emerging streams and dense vegetation (about 300 meters of trail) where it will be necessary to push the bicycle as well. At this point, you will arrive at a panoramic spot with a bench for a short rest and a view over the Piné and Cembra valleys.

Continuing on the Del Castagner forest road, at about 4.9 km turn left onto a path (attention there are no signs indicating the deviation; use the GPX track provided by the app) where you immediately lose altitude with some challenging points, then take the Frontalti forest road which will lead you to the Madonna Dell Aiuto chapel.

Upon reaching the provincial road, head towards the hamlet of Stedro di Segonzano passing through the town center and taking the road that leads to the localities Luc and Quaras. Here you find two viewpoints overlooking the Segonzano Pyramids. After Quaras, the route becomes steeper and more challenging, with some sections where it is necessary to push the bike before reaching the locality Marteri di Bedollo. From here, with a short stretch on asphalt road, you reach the starting point.

Starting from Trento it is possible to reach the village of Centrale di Bedollo by Trentino Trasporti bus, line B402 (Trento - Nogarè - Baselga di Piné - Montesover).

Coming from the A22 Brenner motorway (from the south exit Trento south – from the north exit Trento north) and the State Road 12 Brenner, continue on S.S. 47 Valsugana towards Pergine Valsugana – Padua until the Mochena junction for Altopiano di Piné, then continue on S.P. 83 di Piné up to the sports center of Centrale di Bedollo.
