Lukmanier
Description
The first section of the tour rides along the Lukmanier Pass road through the narrow gorge at the entrance to Val Medel. Immediately after the last tunnel, you change sides of the valley over an old stone bridge and follow signposted hiking trails to Sogn Gion. The route alternates between asphalt roads, well-maintained alpine paths and technical single trails - a little bit of everything and always away from the traffic on the opposite side of the valley. From Sogn Gion, an alpine road rides parallel to the main road as far as the dam, from where a feeder road leads to the main road. The Lukmanier pass can be reached either on the western side of the lake on a rough, sometimes quite difficult singletrail. Alternatively, you can literally ride on the pass road - but instead of in the gallery, you ride on a trail on the roof of the avalanche barriers. One of the most beautiful descents in the region follows from the Lukamanier Pass. You always follow the hiking trail to Olivone through the Valle Santa Maria. A wonderfully flowing trail that gets trickier the longer you go. Shortly before Olivone, the trail becomes a technical challenge; less experienced riders are recommended to take the signposted mountain bike route (Gottardo Bike) for the last few meters.
Shuttles: The return journey is by post bus back to the Lukmanier Pass and back to Disentis (www.autolinee.ch)

Absolute trail fireworks! We took the bus from Olivone up to the Lukmanier Pass (6 seats). From there we pedaled or mainly pushed up over the Passo dell'Uomo and Passo del Sole. The descent is a dream: from alpine meadows, root passages through the forest, technical sections along rivers. Partly Gottardo Bike signposts and partly better follow the trail (as written), who likes it technical instead of rolling on forest roads:)
