Corno della Paura
Description
The tour starts in Avio in the Adige Valley a little south of Rovereto. From here, you take the pass road up to San Valentino. The views are breathtaking and you can feel the solitude far away from the hustle and bustle of nearby Lake Garda. At San Valentino, take the road on the right towards Corno della Paura, which eventually changes from asphalt to gravel before reaching the culmination point of the tour at an altitude of 1518 meters above sea level. A huge viewing platform with buildings from the First World War can be seen at the summit and invites you to descend, which you can already see from this point.
In difficulty S1, the route initially continues through gigantic military structures in the form of tunnels to the saddle and then back to Sabbionara at S2 to S3 level. Trail 686 is the same level of difficulty all the way to the Castello di Sabbionara d'Avio and also offers a big grin on your face throughout. Once you arrive in Sabbionara, you should definitely stop off at a restaurant, as the old town is a dream to linger in, before heading back to the starting point. An ideal tour for spring and fall, with little vegetation and low temperatures, as well as in winter when there is little snow.

On April 1, 2026, there was still some snow above about 1,400 meters. The upper part of the trail had a lot of rocks and wood; I had to carry my bike twice due to fresh rockfall damage, but the lower section was smooth and rideable.
