Colle dell Encuccetta - Superflow

Colle dell Encucetta

The trail over the Colle dell Encucetta offers singletrail flow in a rarely available concentration. Probably only flying is more beautiful!

Description

The starting point of the tour is Bassura di Stroppo on the valley floor of the Valle Maira. From here, follow the main road up the valley to Ponte Marmora, where you turn left and continue uphill to Marmora. Here it is worth stopping at the Albergo diffuso Ceaglio, a hotel and restaurant that has been catering to mountain bikers for many years. The route then climbs another 200 meters along the road to the hamlet of Borgata Superiore. This is the starting point of the long trail back into the main valley. This trail initially hugs the steep mountain flank and rides gently uphill to Colle dell Encucetta. This section is already a classic singletrail experience - but it was just a foretaste of what was to come: the descent down to the valley floor is a firework display of super flow. Not difficult, not steep, super flowy and twisty. If you let yourself go here, you'll roar straight ahead into a trail frenzy. It continues in this style all the way down to the Maira River, with only the last few meters riding on a gravel road. At the very end, the trail climbs back up to the main road where you started the tour.
