Val di GrestaPhoto: Life in Travel, Garda Trentino
A route of medium difficulty that starts from Ronzo-Chienis and leads to Passo S. Barbara and Passo Bordala, between nature trails and asphalt.
Signage: 1911. Passo Bordala Trail - Tour
A fairly demanding climb awaits us at the start of this route, which alternates between stretches of asphalt and nature trails that lead us to the S. Barbara Pass. The descent allows us to recover energy and then climb up to the Bordala Pass, where we can enjoy the beauty of the Val di Gresta mountains and their colours. Once we have reached this last pass and have recharged for the final sprint, it is time for the final descent to Ronzo-Chienis, our starting point.

· Endurance: combined effect of length, uphill and downhill
· Wilderness: amount of planning required based on mobile phone reception, rescue options, water supply and wildlife
· Exposure: consequences of a fall
